Personal Finance Education Ranking

We are excited to announce that BTHS earned 7th place on the 2016 100 Best w!se High Schools Teaching Personal Finance national ranking created by Working in Support of Education (w!se), a leading provider of financial education programs.

w!se announced the prestigious ranking on April 11 at a ceremony sponsored by Voya Financial® and hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Our school was ranked because the students at our school scored among the highest in the country on the w!se Financial Literacy Certification Test. The 2016 ranking is based on school achievement in the 2014-15 school year and is available here.

Our school district and state have made financial literacy a priority. Together with w!se, we are empowering our students to take control of their financial futures. By passing the Certification Test, students earn w!se’s Financial Literacy Certification that demonstrates they are graduating with the knowledge and skills that are essential for a life of financial wellbeing. The 2016 video about this highly successful program is available here.
