Some economists have called the current U.S. economic environment the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. Many educators and parents believe it is more important than ever for students to master financial literacy skills. To become successful and responsible 21st century citizens, students need to graduate globally competitive for work and postsecondary education. Unfortunately, the need to teach 21st-century skills, such as financial literacy, is often overlooked in today's schools. School librarians can play an instrumental role in infusing financial skills and knowledge in schools and helping to improve financial literacy proficiency for all students. In this article, the author discusses why financial literacy should be taught in schools and what school librarians can do.
