Debary Elementary School – PERSONAL FINANCE AND MONEY MANAGEMENT HONORS

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

The primary content for the course pertains to the study of learning the ideas, concepts, knowledge and skills that will enable students to implement beneficial personal decision-making choices; to become wise, successful, and knowledgeable consumers, savers, investors, users of credit and money managers; and to be participating members of a global workforce and society. Honors Level Course Note: Honors level courses require a greater demand on students through increased academic rigor. Academic rigor is obtained through the application, analysis, evaluation, and creation of complex ideas that are often abstract and multi-faceted. Students are challenged to think and collaborate critically on the content they are learning. Honors level rigor will be achieved by increasing text complexity through text selection, focus on high-level qualitative measures, and complexity of task. Instruction will be structured to give students a deeper understanding of conceptual themes and organization within and across disciplines. Academic rigor is more than simply assigning to students a greater quantity of work. Students will acquire skills in first aid, emergency care, and personal, community, and environmental safety. Content shall include first aid, adult, child and infant CPR, relief of obstructed airway, safety concepts, and sports medicine topics.
