We are pleased to announce that Gov. Stein has named October as Economic Education Month in the state of North Carolina. This observance helps promote the importance of teaching economics in our K-12 schools. Why does it matter? It’s simple – students who understand basic economic principles are better equipped to create a better life for themselves and those around them. A goal worth striving for. #EconEdMonth #NCCEE #FinancialLiteracy #PersonalFinance #FinancialEmpowerment #Finance #Teaching #Education
