The Financial Literacy for Youth (FLY) program is a community developed, non-profit finance education curriculum that is fun, relevant and interesting for high school students. It satisfies Planning 10 personal finance learning outcomes specified by the British Columbia Ministry of Education through an engaging and interactive set of lesson plans.
Our materials are created for students by students. We aim to teach what students find engaging and what teachers enjoy teaching. We work constantly with our teams of students and teachers to ensure our curriculum is well-suited to the reality of our classrooms.
Currently we are organizing a conference to teach financial literacy to graduating high school student. The F.L.Y Conference 2012 is scheduled for May 5th, 2011 at R.C. Palmer Secondary School in Richmond. More details are coming soon.
