| Description: |
The newly formed President’s Advisory Council on Financial Literacy has recommended that the U.S. Department of the Treasury challenge U.S. students to learn more about personal finance. Beginning April 28, 2008, high school teachers can register their classes to participate in the 2008 National Financial Literacy Challenge. The Challenge is a voluntary, 35-question test that students can take to earn recognition of their financial knowledge. It will be offered online until May 16, 2008 and there is no fee to participate.
On the Web site you will find information you need to participate in the Challenge, as well exciting information about the awards, which are sponsored by the Charles Schwab Foundation.
If you have any questions about this program, please contact the Treasury Department at FLC@do.treas.gov. A Help Desk and Help Desk phone line are provided to teachers.
