Arizona students recently reported to the State Board of Education that current financial classes focus on “memorization and terminology” rather than real-world skills like budgeting, credit, and taxes.
The Board is calling for “competency-based” systems that focus on application—exactly what Wise Wallet Academy provides.
“We found that often times we get economics education, but something that we would appreciate is learning how to use a credit card, or taxes or more real-world applicable things.”
