        Description:  Personal Finance is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary for successful
        money management. Making wise decisions and establishing short and long-term financial goals are essential “life skills”
        that young people often fail to benefit from during their early wealth-building years. Students learn to plan for their future
        through in-depth lessons on money management, banking, budgeting, credit, paychecks, consumer shopping, basic saving
        and investing concepts, and making major purchases such as education, automobiles and housing. Students participate in
        classroom activities, banking simulations and hands-on projects to fully  integrate real-life applications. This course is
        recommended for all students regardless of their future career paths.
