Florida implements financial literacy course for all high school students.

IMO this is a great idea and should be implemented by all the states. There are few things that affect the quality of a person's life more than personal finances and managing money.

Florida just became the largest state to mandate personal finance education in high school

On Tuesday, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed bill SB 1054, which mandates personal finance education for high school graduation.

What ALL schools NEED in ALL grade levels, are classes in MANNERS, ETIQUETTE, RESPONSIBILITY, SELF-AWARENESS, and UNDERSTANDING.

What happened to good old fashioned tranny info?

I want to know who still has a checkbook to balance?

My almost 28 year-old daughter doesn't even have a checkbook! She knows how to write one because she was taught in school after I had already taught her.

I have written two checks in about the past year, and they were both for thousands of dollars to pay for home improvements. I rarely if ever use a check.

I think the course is a great idea. We already had this class at the Florida high school where I taught from 1996-2006. It's not a new idea.

Which will promptly be forgotten the minute they graduate.

Those are lessons parents should be teaching as an on-the job learning opportunity in the career of growing up. If the parents do not teach them, they will just suffer the consequences.

This should include a cost/benefit analysis of taking out student loans.

The Negroes here in Florida hate it when there are education requirements for graduation. They think it is racist to have to prove they learned something.

That's interesting I didn't know financial literacy had already been taught in high school. Do you know why they discontinued the course?

I was about to say I see a big fail here for the Left as they will all now need to learn to count in denary when I saw your post and spit up my coffee laughing.

Right, there are only so many hours in a day, they have to focus on the top priorities: CRT and LGBTQRTSLMNOP

They didn't! It just was not in every high school because different districts had different course requirements.

For example, some districts only required students complete geometry to graduate, whereas others required Algebra II.
