10-Session Virtual Series

FOR HIGH SCHOOL AND MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS

New Nerd Money LIVE is a 10-session, virtual financial literacy program built specifically for middle and high school students. Each session is taught live, running 45–60 minutes — designed to fit directly into a standard class period.

For teachers, setup is simple — pass out Chromebooks, log into Zoom, and we handle the rest.

The program covers 5 topics (aligned with the national personal finance standards):

  • Money Mindset & Financial Goals

  • Earning Income

  • Budgeting

  • Credit

  • Stocks & Investing Fundamentals

* The lessons are adjusted for each grade level, so every student can follow along and use what they learn.

🏆 Culminating Game Show

Sessions 9–10 end with a New Nerd Money Jeopardy game competition to close out the program.

Teams compete for prize incentives — driving attendance, review, and excitement through the final day.
