Classes All Schools Should Teach, But Don't

One of the classes I believe that all schools should teach, but don't is personal finance. If this was a real class, more people would know how to save their money and be better prepared for life after graduation. Having a personal finance class available to students would make them have the ability to save money and know what they should be putting it towards. Having a job would actually become a benefit for these students instead of a burden.

What schools do not teach students is how to save money for bills or even how to have money when they are on their own, and having this class offered would aid them in knowing how to be prepared for that.

My Plans for the New Year!

In response to Kallas' Blog, my plans for the new year are as follows:

• I will get accepted to Tarleton State University by applying and filling out my scholarship application by the deadline, February 15.
• I will get a better job before summer by applying on my days off.
• I will try to bring my grade up in AP English to at least an 80 before the end of second semester.

Achieving these goals will help me a lot in the long run. It will set me up for a better future after graduation and on towards college. Having a better job will give me more time to prepare for college, and will also help me to save up some money that I could put towards tuition. 

Here are some tips on how to make reasonable goals and achieve them: Goal Setting
