Florida's high school financial literacy requirement takes effect this year
Original: Florida’s high school financial literacy requirement takes hold this year
Florida's requirement that high school students complete a financial literacy course to graduate is now in force this school year. The mandate, signed into law in 2022, requires students to study topics such as budgeting, credit scores, taxes and loans before earning a diploma. It is being watched closely by educators and other states weighing similar personal finance graduation rules.
Why now: The new graduation requirement takes effect this school year, prompting interest in how schools will implement it and whether other states will follow.
