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!

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. |
