Jump$tart Teen Teach-In

In an impressive display of peer-led education, the Jump$tart Teen Teach-In program has taken GMSD by storm, showcasing the power and potential of student-driven financial literacy.
 
This nationwide initiative has been met with keen interest from teachers and students alike. The program's genius lies in its peer-to-peer educational model, which sends high school students into elementary classrooms to teach financial lessons. This innovative approach serves a triple purpose: It reinforces the high schoolers' understanding of personal finance as they step into the role of educators, provides young learners with an early introduction to monetary matters, and sparks widespread conversations on the significance of youth financial education.
 
"Being 'teacher for a day' is not just a fun experience; it's an opportunity for our high school students to solidify their own financial knowledge," commented HHS finance teacher Monica Thomas. Meanwhile, elementary school children benefit from the engaging and relatable teaching style of their slightly older peers.
