Eighth graders at Incline Middle School (IMS) recently wrapped up a dynamic Financial Literacy course that gave students real-world tools for smart money management—and a head start on financial independence.
Offered as part of the school’s Exploratory program, this unique class is designed to go beyond the traditional classroom, engaging students in practical, hands-on learning. Students rotate through four nine-week sessions throughout the school year and focus on key financial concepts like earning, saving, investing, budgeting, and giving back.
