Recording: Teaching Financial Literacy with Student Behavior Points
Discover how Barry School used LiveSchool to teach financial literacy, positive behavior, and real-world money skills through a creative school rewards system.
The joke goes: we teach students the Pythagorean Theorem but not how to do taxes. We should teach students about triangles, but we should also teach them financial literacy.
That's exactly what Jason Haniger thought. Jason is the former principal at Barry School. His school used LiveSchool to award points to students for positive behavior, which students could spend in their school store. That's a concept familiar to most schools, but Jason took it a step further.
With the help of his team, Jason turned those behavior points into an opportunity to learn about interest, investing, and savings. He even built partnerships with local Credit Unions along the way.
In this webinar, Jason breaks down how he did this and gives you the resources to do the same.
