Financial literacy, grades
EDUCATION – Adds to existing law to require financial literacy courses in certain grades.

RS30117 / H0092

This bill would make it a requirement for all high schools in the state of Idaho to teach a class in financial literacy. The class should teach students the basics of real-world personal finance and how to make sound financial decisions in their everyday lives. This class will fulfill a graduation requirement for financial literacy.

All curriculum for this program will be created using freely available sources. There will be no known impact to the general fund.
