The Center for Economic Education provides economic and financial literacy education to the IDA participants and also to interested students in the same cohort and school as the IDA participants. Students received certificates of completion for participating in these camps. Eighty-three students enrolled in the week-long Financial Fitness Camp of June 2012 when the participants finished 8th grade. Fifty-four students enrolled in the four-day Financial Fitness Camp in June 2014 when the participants finished 10th grade. Hands-on learning activities, touring the campus, and having lunch at the campus Gastronome were memorable experiences for the students. View Photos Here »
