Student Program highlights from 2014
by. Fatemeh Fakhraie
Teachers need help giving students engaging materials more than ever, especially since more states are starting to require personal finance curriculum. brass believes financial basics are paramount in high school education, which is why we take pride in our Student Program. And we’re proud to share another wonderful year with you!
Our survey results from sponsored teachers are glowing: 100% of teachers would recommend the Student Program to a colleague, and respondents believe that our content is helping students understand money so they can make choices with confidence. Several teachers felt that brass is “more engaging that standard text books” and students “enjoy and frequently ask questions” about Student Program material.
Another statistic we’re proud of is the fact that 82% of teachers use the Student Program with their own curriculum; the rest assign it as independent reading or use it along with the resources we provide in the Teacher Resource Center.
If you’d like to learn more about how the Student Program can help your local schools get up to speed when it comes to the money side of life, check out the full 2014 survey. Or get in touch with us to discuss how you can bring the Student Program to your high school!
