From the 153rd General Assembly, this bill as amended, mandates a ½-credit financial literacy course for all high school students beginning with the class of 2026–2027. The course may count toward either social studies or elective graduation requirements and must align with current Financial Literacy Standards. All public and charter high schools are required to offer the course, with provisions for educator training and encouragement to partner with local organizations for support. Senate Amendment 1 clarifies curriculum flexibility and strengthens alignment with educational standards.
