Through our comprehensive curriculum for economic and financial literacy,
the Arizona Council on Economic Education:

• Provides students with all the practical knowledge necessary to become vital members of the local and global economy
• Enables students to develop critical economic thinking skills

We have created a complete system for teaching personal finance and economics to students grades k-12.  Using a variety of different programs, classes and workshops, the ACEE has directly impacted nearly 250,000 Arizona students.  That's nearly 1 in 5 Arizona school aged children!

What Does ACEE Do?
• Establish educational standards
• Provide teacher training
• Develop curriculum
• Disseminate materials
• Evaluate results

Why Are We Needed?
• Economics is not a required course in Arizona schools but is included in the Arizona Social Studies Standards. ACEE worked with the Department of Education for the inclusion of economics in the standards.
• It has taken years to bring economics to curriculum importance in K-12 education. ACEE has been the leader in this cause.
• Professional development for teachers is scarce.
• ACEE partners with the business community and promotes the interest of free markets.
• Economic literacy fosters economic development and prosperity.
