Personal Finance

My goal in Personal Finance is to get students talking and thinking about how they will handle their finances in the future.  This year, we are incorporating Foundations in Personal Finance by Dave Ramsey which I am personally excited about.  I will be asking for lots of parent involvement from this course discussing a variety of finance topics with your students through parental interviews or maybe even a checklist of things to look at together to open discussions.  The more prepared they can be now, the better off they will be in the future.
