SUMMARY:Learning Lunch: Why MA Students Need Personal Finance as a Graduation Requirement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an important conversation about the growing movement to make personal finance a graduation requirement in Massachusetts public schools. As students prepare for life beyond high school\, they face increasingly complex financial decisions—from student loans and credit cards to budgeting\, taxes\, and long-term savings. Cohosted by the Financial Empowerment Network\, this Learning Lunch will examine current policy efforts\, what a graduation requirement could look like\, and how school committees can support meaningful\, practical financial education in their districts. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape and actionable insights to bring back to their communities. RSVP here or via the form below.
