Students learn various ways to manage their money and save for the future. An analysis of the economy and how it impacts personal savings is undertaken, as is an examination of both good and bad debt.

Chalk Talk: The Value of Freshman Transition Programs
Studies show that the freshman year of high school is the most critical for students. A combination of more classes, higher expectations, social stressors and increased freedom can combine to cause increased stress, reduced academic performance and increase the likelihood of acting out, or even dropping out of school. To combat this, many schools have implemented freshman transition programs. These programs often pair incoming freshman with seniors who serve as mentors. Mentors undergo extensive training and offer academic, social and emotional support to freshmen. There are generally highly structured activities each week, where freshmen and their mentors engage in exercises that focus on team building, communication, respect and trust. As a result, freshmen feel an increased connection to one another and to the school. Schools that have implemented these programs see a marked reduction of negative behaviors and increased academic achievement.
