Help the World See Your Impact

At Ramsey Education, our mission is to equip you with the tools to teach your students how money really works. As an educator, you have an important role in shaping their future—and that’s why we’d love your help. We’re looking for your students’ feedback on Foundations in Personal Finance. With your support, we can make this life-changing curriculum available to even more students.

Join Our Impact Study

In 2019, we created a research study to learn how Foundations in Personal Finance helps students make better choices with money. We want to show others the behavior changes you’re seeing in the classroom and help even more students learn these important skills.

Here’s how you and your students can join the study: 

  1. It’s easy! We’ll send you two links by email to share with your students. 

  1. It’s just two surveys. Students take one at the beginning of the course and one at the end of the course. All data is confidential and for research purposes only.

Why It Matters

This study is about real students gaining the knowledge and confidence they need to grow into well-rounded, capable adults who are ready to build a brighter future. When you take part in this study, you help show other schools and districts what’s possible when our curriculum is paired with dedicated teachers. We need your help so as many students as possible join in, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
