SAVEUP OVERVIEW
Starting out in life with a strong financial literacy foundation is crucial to students' long-term success. This is why we have created a free interactive, digital course called SaveUp. Through engaging self-paced lessons, middle school students are provided with the knowledge and skills they need to become informed consumers on how to save money, thus prompting them to begin saving as early as possible. In this course, students will learn why saving is important, how to budget and spend wisely, how to build an emergency savings, why savings can help reach financial goals, setting short-, mid-, and long-term goals and how to open a savings account.
We know that developing good financial literacy means recognizing the importance of budgeting savings and spending wisely. Help your students thrive by using SaveUp in the classroom today!
