Present day educators believe that by including real life situations in everyday lessons students will become more engaged. By teaching students how to better spend their money teachers prepare them for a better economic future.
Classes like economics, career connection, BCIS, and some math classes help students prepare for a better further, they help them deal with problems they might run into such a problems dealing with money. Even though these classes are helpful they aren't taught as in depth as I would like them to be. Instead of just sugar coating lessons these teachers should show their students all of the money problems they may deal with when becoming adults.
These classes are useful but instead of just showing all of the good points they should also show more of the negative points that students should learn to deal with. I fee semi-comfortable with my ability to manage money and finances I would feel more prepared if I were taught a financial literacy curriculum in younger grades.
