Personal Finance Curriculum
Taking what we've learned teaching entrepreneurship to 12,000 students from 400+ schools, we're building a turn-key personal finance course for 6th-12th grade.
Why Teach Personal Finance?
Personal finance is an essential skill for students in middle and high school, and equips them for the world they are about to enter. It's one of the most important skills for young people, and we're not the only ones that think so:
There's never been a more important time to teach personal finance, and we make it turn-key.
Course Overview
We provide turn-key curriculum that is easy to launch and highly engaging for your students.

Included in the Course
Turn-key Videos, lesson plans, and gradable assignments
All of the financial literacy lessons have already been pre-recorded and are ready to use. Videos usually take up a small portion of class time and the remainder is spent with the students practicing the concepts taught in the video. To make things even easier, we also have five sets of ready-made lesson plans based on teaching the course one or up to five days per week, including gradable assignments like worksheets, presentations, quizzes, tests, and more. We want this to be the most user-friendly, turn-key course you've ever taught!
Support from Real People
If you have any questions about the curriculum, our team is personally available via email and live chat to help you. We're real people, and we're here to help.
Gamification (for Co-Ops)
This course isn't just vocabulary memorization or studying hypothetical topics. It's full of real-world learning, and our project-based learning approach helps gamify the experience so that it is incredibly engaging for students.

What Teachers Say About Our Entrepreneurship Courses
"It was unreal how engaged and excited they were to do this, and the effect that had on their on-task behavior in the classroom."
"I really love that this is a practical class where students get to start their own businesses rather than just reading about business principles."
"It's been so fun to see them develop skills that they'll be able to take with them into any industry they choose."
Rarely do you find a course that requires both creative and critical thinking. Boss Club's entrepreneurship class does this. It is a great way to take classroom learning and put it into everyday living both as a business owner and income earner.

Boss Club was a very thorough program that inspired my students as they began their businesses. I personally learned a lot from the curriculum and my class commented that they wish they had learned the skills earlier. Easy to implement, practical, warm, and clear, the classes provided a step-by-step process for something that tends to be daunting. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

You wouldn't believe how awesome the kids are doing with their business formations. We have animators, jewelry consultants, doggie daycare owners, and much more! They've created presentations including their pitches. They're created logos and slogans. They know their business demographics and clients. Right now, we're working on creating business emails. I have a number of examples that can be shared!!
