Georgia Governor, Brian Kemp, has signed into law SB 220, a bill requiring personal finance classes for high school students. Starting in the 2024-2025 school year, all 11th- and 12th-grade students will need to take at least a half-credit course in financial literacy before graduation.
The measure is aimed at ensuring that all students learn finacial literacy prior to graduation. Georgia is the 13th state to include financial literacy education to be part of their high school graduation requirements.
