Financial Literacy in physical education

jeffmiesner
My name is Jeff Miesner. I teach Physical Education class.  Once a semester I have someone from either the Air or Army National Guard come in.  During these lessons I am able to discuss the issues regarding student loans and the troubles people can get themselves into.  This is my chance to help teach a little financial literacy.  Too many times the students "sign" into the debt without fully understanding what that means until it is too late.  If I can help the students realize there are alternatives that can allow them to go to college debt free.  This is my chance to teach that during physical education class.
