In Financial Literacy, students learn and practice new methods for managing money now and in the future. They create and use a personal budget, explore the often confusing world of payroll deductions and taxes, develop a plan for saving and investing for retirement, and plan now for major purchases they may make in coming years. With an emphasis on intentional money management and planning ahead, this course readies students to continue good financial preparation well into their adult years.
