Today, we participated in the National Financial Literacy Challenge. The Challenge was developed by the U.S. Treasury in consultation with four non-governmental economists and the following education organizations: Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy, Junior Achievement USA, The National Council on Economic Education, and the National Endowment for Financial Education. After the Challenge window ends May 16, the results will be tabulated. If any of your students scored in the nation’s top 25th percentile, you will be sent their certificate of recognition to forward.
