The Lesson Plan Ep 5: Financial Literacy in DPS
DPS Communications Manager Nicole Brady sits down with Theresa Connolly, Financial Literacy Curriculum Specialist for Denver Public Schools. Financial literacy is now a graduation requirement in Colorado, and DPS was instrumental in laying the groundwork.
In this discussion, learn why a team of DPS alumni pushed for financial literacy and how DPS students are now learning everything from budgeting, to taxes, to investments. Nicole and Theresa also discuss historical discrimination and how DPS is preparing students to be advocates for a financial system that's fair for everyone.
