Tenth Grade Financial Literacy Curriculum
Most families overpay for college simply because no one taught them how financial aid works.
Tenth graders can reason about long-term consequences — exactly when planning for life after high school gets real. Our tenth grade financial literacy curriculum teaches what most programs never touch: the FAFSA, grant and scholarship applications, and how to win free money before ever borrowing — for four-year colleges, trade and career schools, and paid apprenticeships alike. Students learn the difference between a school's sticker price and its real net price, and how to make it work in their favor, whatever path they choose.
The Wyzmons™ — a learner for every stage
Tenth Grade sits in the Money Mastery band — one step in a single K–12 arc, from a first coin to a first paycheck.
The FAFSA, grant and scholarship applications, and winning free money before ever borrowing — for four-year colleges, trade and career schools, and paid apprenticeships alike — plus sticker price vs. real net price.
What a Tenth Grade student learns.
Tenth Grade sits inside the Money Mastery program — 6 units and 74 lessons of story-, play-, and decision-based learning, taught the way great classrooms actually teach.
Every decision a tenth grade student makes feeds the FLIQ Score™ — a behavioral measure of how a child actually decides about money, so growth is provable, not guessed.
The Tenth Grade curriculum is Jump$tart National Standards aligned, follows the HQIM structure districts use to evaluate curriculum, and is FERPA & COPPA compliant. Districts license per school and can pay by purchase order — Title IV-A eligible.
Grade-level design reflects established stages of cognitive development (Piaget) and research on early money-habit formation.
