Currently, 45% of high school seniors say they are not ready to manage their money.1 Even among adults, financial literacy is at an all-time low in the United States. Our standard curriculum, for tweens ages 8 to 14, is designed to change that.
MoneyIsland provides invaluable life lessons that better prepare future generations. Aligned with national standards published by the Jump$tart Coalition® for Personal Financial Literacy, the MoneyIsland curriculum builds skills in three basic areas: Saving & Spending, Earning & Investing, and Using Credit Wisely.
