As children, we are taught that we should learn lessons early. Why should managing money be any different? Across our country, school boards have slowly been introducing financial literacy into their curriculums. Unfortunately, the Toronto District School Board has yet to do so, and the students in this school board are falling behind. Learning about financial literacy early would benefit students in many ways, and would make it considerably easier for students to transitions into lives as adults. It would also help students develop life skills, such as saving money and paying bills (on time). Currently, students are taught either the barest minimum or absolutely nothing at all on this topic, and this is something that needs to change.
