DE HR31

Department of Education must contract with University of Delaware Institute for Public Administration to conduct a curriculum alignment study for all local education agencies to ensure implementation of K-12 financial literacy standards.

Department of Education must report curriculum alignment study findings to the General Assembly by May 1, 2025, including delivery to the Governor, legislative leadership, and relevant committees.

Department of Education will provide assistance to local education agencies to improve implementation of existing financial literacy standards in grades K-12.

Resolution emphasizes financial literacy as essential skill for student success, citing disparities in financial literacy rates among Hispanic, Native American, and African American populations.

Study will align with Delaware's 2018 K-12 Financial Literacy standards adopted by the State Board of Education and correlate to national financial literacy standards.
