A personal finance course, and the file that documents it
learnfinancewith is a K-12 personal finance curriculum built on one simulated economy that runs across thirteen grades. It is designed for the decision a district actually has to make: whether a course satisfies the state's requirement, and whether the evidence exists to show it did.
The curriculum in numbers
- grade courses, kindergarten through 12
- 13grade courses, kindergarten through 12
- sessions, each with an objective and a standard
- 486sessions, each with an objective and a standard
- adult sessions, English and Spanish
- 18adult sessions, English and Spanish
- grades whose full course exists in Spanish
- 7grades whose full course exists in Spanish
Indiana: what the state requires
The requirement is law; the first bound class is the class of 2028.
What the district receives
A full course rather than a resource library. Every session carries an objective, a standards alignment, an estimated instructional time, and teacher notes — the fields a course-approval packet asks for, generated from the course itself rather than typed into a document that drifts by November.
- A syllabus generated from the course, printable for an articulation conversation
- A scope and sequence for every grade, with each session mapped to a standard
- A contact-hour ledger, so instructional time is counted rather than asserted
- A credit-determination file per student: what was completed, when, and against which framework
Why the record is the product
Most adoption risk is not whether students learn — it is whether the district can show what happened when someone asks a year later. Auditors ask for hours. Registrars ask for a syllabus. A board asks what changed. Parents ask why a grade is what it is.
Every one of those questions is answered from the same record the classroom generates as it runs, and the record is append-only: a completed session, a contact hour, a determination. Nothing in it can be quietly edited after the fact, which is the property that makes it worth showing to an auditor at all.
What a pilot looks like
One teacher, one course, one term. The teacher gets a class, a roster, a live view of who is stuck, and a gradebook that reads from observed work rather than from a separate entry step. The district gets the file described above, for those students, at the end of the term.
No student data is required to evaluate the platform first: the full demonstration runs on a simulated district with generated students, so a director can walk the entire teacher and student experience before any real name exists in the system.
What we do not claim
One sentence a vendor should say and mostly will not: the platform never awards credit — the district does. We do not claim state approval, and we do not claim that using this satisfies a requirement, because neither is ours to declare. What we build is the course and the documentation that lets your district make that determination and defend it.
Walk the platform as a teacher and as a student, then tell us where it would break in your district. What a pilot involves — what each side commits to for a term — is written down at learnfinancewith.com/pilot.
