Financial Planning

GRADE: 11th-12th

LENGTH: One Semester

In Financial Planning, students will learn how individual choices directly influence occupational goals and future earning potential. This course will provide a foundational understanding for making informed personal financial decisions leading to financial independence. In order to best achieve financial independence, students must understand real world topics that influence our daily lives such as retirement funds, taxes, smart spending habits, insurance, personal loans, and money management. All these topics, and more, will be discussed in order to help each student become a fiscally responsible adult who can contribute to the stability of our economy. THIS WILL BE THE MOST PRACTICAL AND USEFUL CLASS YOU TAKE DURING YOUR HIGH SCHOOL CAREER!
