In this episode, Amy Lee, the executive director of the OK Council for Economic Education (OCEE), and Dr. Sue Lynn Sasser, professor emeritus in economics discuss the importance of financial literacy. They have worked for several years to improve the education standards in Oklahoma for both personal finance and economics. We discuss those efforts, programs the OCEE have to help students and teachers, and why students need to understand the basics of personal finance and economics.

April is "Financial Literacy Month," so don't miss this deep dive into how to better prepare students for effectively managing their finances.
