FINANCIAL LITERACY and ECON EDUCATION Conference

ESHS Educator Takes Brookly

ESHS Biz Pathway Educator, Bonnie Maye,  was selected by the Council for Economic Education (CEE) as a recipient of a scholarship to attend the annual Financial Literacy and Economic Education Conference in Brookly, NY during October 4-7th. This opportunity was made possible by funding from the CEE. 

Ms. Maye has been working for the past two years with the local California Council for Education developing the various beyond the classroom experiences for students. This summer Ms. Maye was invited to work with the Council for Economic Education to help develop a new program designed to help prepare students for the workplace. The trip to New York wars a chance for the parties involved to meet face-to-face to work on the curriculum which hopes to be piloted in various classrooms soon. 

"It's a great honor to be selected to represent El Segundo High School and the El Segundo Unified School District in my work with both the national and the local Council's activities, " explained Ms. Maye. "Being here allows me to continue to network with leaders in economic and financial literacy education,m as well as other educators while representing the incredible work that is being done at ESHS with our own Biz Pathway program."

"I cannot wait to share with my fellow educators many of the resources and exciting programs and strategies that this conference provides."
