Dollars with Sense
Dollars with Sense gives junior high school students personal money management skills, challenging them to apply these concepts in their own life, starting now! Encourage them to make sense of their dollars and cents.
This program demonstrates how students can financially manage changes in career and life directions. From the origins of trade to the ins and outs of investing, Dollars with Sense provides experience they need to make better economic decisions. Students play an investment strategies game to learn about effective spending and how to avoid credit and debt pitfalls. The best return on investment is smarter financial growth.
Dollars with Sense provides students personal money management skills and challenges them to apply these concepts in their own life starting today. The need to ensure our youth are financially literate has never been greater!
Like other Junior Achievement programs, Dollars with Sense is curriculum-linked, student centered and skills focused. It is delivered by a qualified business volunteer at no cost to schools or groups.
