The school district where I went to school did have this as a graduation requirement.


did you find it valuable?

Yeah. It wasn't strictly a class about finances, there were other professional development skills taught and practiced as well.

So basically the course covered budgeting, check book keeping (ok, not the most relevant these days), how credit cards work, the types of bank accounts, some basic investment stuff, and then there were also sections on how to write resumes and cover letters and how to conduct yourself at an interview. It was all around pretty enjoyable.

Once you completed that course you could register for a small business management one where you actually had to work at a mini convenience store in the school, manage the inventory, operate the register, etc.
