Digest
HB 2008 amends the Texas Education Code to require high school students to complete a course in personal financial literacy and economics as part of the foundation high school program. The curriculum adjustment mandates at least one-half credit in personal financial literacy and economics as a replacement for the existing general economics requirement. This change applies to students entering the ninth grade in the 2025-2026 school year or later. The Act emphasizes equipping students with financial skills necessary for managing personal finances and economic decision-making.
