Georgia: A financial literacy course that sticks to your state standards is here! Money Vehicle is pleased to announce that its virtual financial literacy course adheres to the new standards adopted by the state of Georgia.
As many of you may have seen, the State Board of Education approved the changes to the Georgia Standards of Excellence for Personal Finance and Economics course required for graduation 45.061 implemented during the 2022-23 school year, which requires that all public school students in the state receive personal finance instruction.
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp signed into law SB220 saying, the measure “will ensure that [students] learn financial literacy in our schools, like the importance of good credit and how to budget properly so that they can be better prepared for the world beyond the classroom.”
The Money Vehicle course aligns with Georgia standards. As such, it’s an ideal solution for Georgia schools. Take it from our founder and CEO, Jedidiah Collins: “Georgia’s new personal finance standards will have an opportunity to change students’ futures, and we could not be more proud that Money Vehicle will empower teachers to deliver this impact in classrooms,” he said.
Georgia’s Financial Literacy Standards
Georgia’s standards state that students, beginning in the 2022-2023 school year, must take one-half credit in personal financial literacy and economics. The standards mandate instruction on financial topics spanning through Fundamentals of Economic Decision Making, Personal Finance, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, International. The Money Vehicle course aligns to these standards, teaching students these basic principles of personal finance as well as addressing much more.
Money Vehicle is designed for classrooms and delivers resources for educators. The course was developed by financial and educational experts—teachers and administrators among them, who have decades of experience rolling out school projects. Money Vehicle is already being used by school districts nationwide, as well as being used on college campuses and by professional sports leagues.
