It is, at least in the state of Utah. I had to take a class called Financial Literacy.

It wasn't a bad class (and nicely enough my CS teacher happened to teach it, also), but unfortunately I think it's worse off than math classes as far as getting people to care and thus really remember it for later.

That is sad, because you think a personal finance if taught right would be the most interesting class in school for students. I would think a teacher would only have tell a student, if you want to be rich this is the only class that matters.
