WESTBROOK, Maine–With a new Maine law requiring teachers to incorporate financial education in their lesson plans in grades K through 12 this year, Maine’s credit unions have released a new financial education video designed to provide assistance.
The video was created by the Maine Credit Union League. “Youth financial education has long been a focus of Maine credit unions,” said Jake Holmes, the league’s financial literacy outreach coordinator, in comments on the league’s website. “While we’ve always been there to help students build the foundation for financial wellness, we can be there for Maine’s educators as well. Promoting financial literacy, while helping meet curriculum mandates is a win-win.”
According to the league, credit unions looking to support schools can offer Financial Fitness Fairs, either in-person or virtually. Teachers can also lead turn-key lesson plans developed by the Maine Credit Union League.
