My Project
In our project proposal, we are seeking essential resources that will profoundly impact our students' learning experiences and equip them with the necessary tools to excel in the financial world. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, we have encountered difficulties in acquiring a crucial item: a TPT digital card that would enable us to purchase a solid curriculum tailored to our students' needs.
The specific items we are requesting are instrumental in enhancing our students' learning and mindset toward financial success.
With access to a comprehensive curriculum, our students would have the opportunity to delve into the fundamental principles of personal finance, from budgeting and saving to investing and beyond. Students will be provided with practical knowledge and instill a mindset of financial responsibility and empowerment, setting them on a path toward lifelong success.
Our primary goal is to provide students with the personal financial education they need to excel in life beyond the classroom. We recognize the importance of equipping them with the skills necessary to make informed financial decisions and build a secure future. By instilling these essential life skills, we aim to empower our students to break the cycle of financial hardship often prevalent in low-income communities.
What makes our students truly special is their resilience and potential to effect positive change. Many of them come from low-income backgrounds, where they face financial challenges from an early age. Despite these obstacles, they possess a determination to succeed and a desire to improve their circumstances. With the right education and support, they have the opportunity to break free from the cycle of poverty and create a better future for themselves and their community. By investing in their financial education, we are not only investing in their individual success but also in the prosperity and well-being of future generations.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
