Purpose

  • Equip students with the skills required to manage their financial stability over their lifetime and attain financial empowerment

Definition

  • Coursework or other structured programming during school hours to help students develop financial literacy skills and empowerment to effectively manage their money

Minimum experiences FRNYC schools must provide to FRNYC students:

  • Starting in SY24-25, schools will be expected to provide financial literacy coursework and will receive support from Central to do so.
  • During SY23-24, a subset of FRNYC schools will pilot financial literacy instructional modules embedded in FRNYC courses to inform offerings for SY24-25. More information will be shared over the coming months.
  • Note: Programs intending to pursue a 7+ credit CTE program sequence may use the Career and Financial Management (CFM) framework/coursework, delivered by a CTE licensed teacher, to satisfy this requirement. FRNYC-CRMYA schools should continue to use the CRMYA career development curriculum to satisfy this program requirement.
