Ordinarily, the curriculum in California is developed by a group of teachers and subject-matter professionals who serve on the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/be/cc/cd/\">Instructional Quality Commission\u003c/a>, which meets publicly six times a year. A new curriculum is subject to multiple reviews, edits and public vetting, ultimately going before the \u003ca href=\"https://www.cde.ca.gov/be/\">State Board of Education\u003c/a> for adoption.

When writing new curricula, the Instructional Quality Commission looks at the broader context, ensuring students get new material every year that builds on what they learned previously, subjects don’t overlap and topics are flexible enough for teachers to adapt lessons to the individual needs of their students. Textbooks and tests are also taken into consideration.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Legislature weighs in\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Most curriculum updates and changes originate with the commission, but sometimes the Legislature weighs in. The state’s new \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2021/10/ethnic-studies-requirement/\">ethnic studies\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2023/11/fake-news-california-school/\">media literacy\u003c/a> requirements, for example, stemmed from Assembly bills. Another bill, \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240ab2097?slug=CA_202320240AB2097\">AB 2097\u003c/a>, would add computer science as a graduation requirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240ab2927?slug=CA_202320240AB2927\">AB 2927\u003c/a>, a financial literacy bill proposed by Democrat \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/legislators/kevin-mccarty-22\">Kevin McCarty\u003c/a> of Sacramento, would actually do almost the same thing as the ballot initiative. The bill would require financial literacy as a graduation requirement, although it would go into effect until 2031, a year later than the ballot measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bruce Fuller, an education professor at UC Berkeley, said he worries about the increasing politicization of curriculum — either from the Legislature or those pushing for ballot initiatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have these political interests unabashedly trying to control what’s taught in the classroom instead of leaving it up to teachers and locally elected school boards,” Fuller said. “We should trust those folks to devise a thoughtful curriculum that’s appropriate for their students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also questioned the ever-growing list of graduation requirements. High schools only offer six or seven class periods a day, and with more required classes, there’s less room for art and other electives. Some districts have started adding an extra period so students can fit in all the classes they need to take to graduate, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2024/04/career-pathways/\">finish a career pathway\u003c/a> and qualify for California’s public universities.[aside postID=news_11984551 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/04/240423-SAT-III-MD-06-KQED-1020x680.jpg']“I’m not sure how adding more required classes is going to motivate restless teenagers,” Fuller said. “With more requirements, we’re giving them almost no chance to study things they’re actually interested in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarty’s bill is not the Legislature’s first attempt to wade into financial literacy. A dozen bills requiring financial literacy have died or been vetoed in recent years, in most cases because the financial literacy curriculum already exists and the state already has a system for adopting the curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Gov. Jerry Brown wrote in 2018 when he \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billStatusClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB858\">vetoed a bill\u003c/a> that would have made financial literacy materials available to teachers: “This bill is unnecessary. The History-Social Science Framework already contains financial literacy content for pupils in kindergarten through grade 12, as well as a financial literacy elective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ranzetta said the Legislature’s inability to pass a financial literacy curriculum spurred him to take the matter directly to voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I recognize the value of the process, but it’s slow, and so far, it hasn’t worked in California,” he said. “The issue is too urgent and too popular to wait any longer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ranzetta grew up in New Jersey, where his father was a banker, and his mother was a community volunteer who raised six children. He learned financial literacy from his parents and assumed other young people did, too. It wasn’t until he started volunteering at an East Palo Alto high school that he realized many students are clueless about money and that ignorance can hamper them throughout their lives. But they were eager to learn, he said, and share the information with their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That experience inspired him to start NextGen Personal Finance, which offers free financial literacy curriculum and training for teachers. At least 7,000 teachers in California and more than 100,000 nationwide have participated, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A class that demystifies money\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At Berkeley High School, Crystal Rigley Janis teaches two economics classes and three personal finance classes. Her classes cover topics she wishes she had known as a young person, such as negotiating a salary, not relying on gut instinct when investing, and avoiding individual stocks in favor of index funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It took me 15 years to understand those things, and it probably cost me millions of dollars,” said Rigley, who worked for several years at a wealth management firm before going into teaching. “I don’t want other people to make the mistakes I did.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11985029\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11985029\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/05/CMFinance02-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Students walk in the main entrance of Berkeley High School in Berkeley on May 1, 2024. \u003ccite>(Laure Andrillon/CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Eliza Maier, a senior, was so inspired by Rigley’s class that she opened a Roth IRA when she turned 18 and transferred money from her low-interest savings account.

Another bill, \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240ab2097?slug=CA_202320240AB2097\">AB 2097\u003c/a>, would add computer science as a graduation requirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240ab2927?slug=CA_202320240AB2927\">AB 2927\u003c/a>, a financial literacy bill proposed by Democrat \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/legislators/kevin-mccarty-22\">Kevin McCarty\u003c/a> of Sacramento, would actually do almost the same thing as the ballot initiative. The bill would require financial literacy as a graduation requirement, although it would go into effect until 2031, a year later than the ballot measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bruce Fuller, an education professor at UC Berkeley, said he worries about the increasing politicization of curriculum — either from the Legislature or those pushing for ballot initiatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have these political interests unabashedly trying to control what’s taught in the classroom instead of leaving it up to teachers and locally elected school boards,” Fuller said. “We should trust those folks to devise a thoughtful curriculum that’s appropriate for their students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also questioned the ever-growing list of graduation requirements. High schools only offer six or seven class periods a day, and with more required classes, there’s less room for art and other electives. Some districts have started adding an extra period so students can fit in all the classes they need to take to graduate, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2024/04/career-pathways/\">finish a career pathway\u003c/a> and qualify for California’s public universities.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"postid":"news_11984551","hero":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/04/240423-SAT-III-MD-06-KQED-1020x680.jpg","label":""},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>“I’m not sure how adding more required classes is going to motivate restless teenagers,” Fuller said. “With more requirements, we’re giving them almost no chance to study things they’re actually interested in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McCarty’s bill is not the Legislature’s first attempt to wade into financial literacy. A dozen bills requiring financial literacy have died or been vetoed in recent years, in most cases because the financial literacy curriculum already exists and the state already has a system for adopting the curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Gov. Jerry Brown wrote in 2018 when he \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billStatusClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB858\">vetoed a bill\u003c/a> that would have made financial literacy materials available to teachers: “This bill is unnecessary. The History-Social Science Framework already contains financial literacy content for pupils in kindergarten through grade 12, as well as a financial literacy elective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ranzetta said the Legislature’s inability to pass a financial literacy curriculum spurred him to take the matter directly to voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I recognize the value of the process, but it’s slow, and so far, it hasn’t worked in California,” he said. “The issue is too urgent and too popular to wait any longer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ranzetta grew up in New Jersey, where his father was a banker, and his mother was a community volunteer who raised six children. He learned financial literacy from his parents and assumed other young people did, too. It wasn’t until he started volunteering at an East Palo Alto high school that he realized many students are clueless about money and that ignorance can hamper them throughout their lives. But they were eager to learn, he said, and share the information with their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That experience inspired him to start NextGen Personal Finance, which offers free financial literacy curriculum and training for teachers. At least 7,000 teachers in California and more than 100,000 nationwide have participated, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A class that demystifies money\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>At Berkeley High School, Crystal Rigley Janis teaches two economics classes and three personal finance classes.
