While it may sound like a unicorn, the description matches a personal finance elective launched by Stuyvesant High School in New York City last year. “This is something that every kid kind of needs to do, and we are kind of thrown into doing it on our own time, without any guidance,” said Anisha Singhal, a senior at Stuyvesant who advocated not only for the school to create an elective, but also for New York to mandate financial literacy education across all high schools in the state.
