Financial Literacy for Every Student. Every Grade. Starting Right Now. If you are here, you already understand something most people discover too late: financial knowledge is a life skill as fundamental as reading and mathematics - and most American students graduate without it. Money Smart Nation exists to change that. This community is for parents who want to give their children a financial foundation that lasts a lifetime. For teachers who believe their students deserve to understand money before the world demands it of them. For students who are ready to learn what perhaps nobody taught their parents either. The program runs from Grade 1 through Grade 12. Every grade builds on the one before it. And wherever your child is right now - that is exactly where we start. Welcome to the community. Let's get to work. -William, Founder, Money Smart Nation
