My Students

Our school is located in the Southeastern Louisiana, recently devastated by Hurricane Ida. Many of my students suffered severe damage to their homes as well as their personal things....truly heartbreaking! My students are working hard to prepare themselves for high school graduation and beyond. Financial Literacy will help to develop an understanding of what my students will need to prepare for to be successful, financially literate adults.

My students love to learn by doing.

I feel the best way to get them excited about learning to be successful adults is to have them participate in a course that simulates adult activities and projects. The students are excited and eager to learn the skills they will need to become a successful "Financially Literate Adult" and be successful in todays world.

My Project

The materials purchased with these funds will allow student to work both at in class and at home in a project-based course to become successful and financially literate adults.

These materials will help students to participate in learning activities and projects that will help them to develop a specific understanding of the skills that they will need in everyday life.

Specifically, understanding income and employee benefits, budgeting and wise spending, buying a home, banking, paying taxes, consumer credit, loans and debt all while re-enforcing mathematical skills involving percent, decimals, fractions, and reading charts and graphs.
