Teaching Financial Literacy. In recent years there has been a real push to prepare students for the real world by teaching basic finance such as managing debt and credit cards, saving money, and balancing a budget. While it’s not mandated in Massachusetts that students take a financial literacy class, there are a handful of schools offering it, such as Westwood High School, where the class is mandatory to graduate. Westwood High School Principal Amy Davenport and Financial Literacy Teacher Brianne Mehigan join Dan this evening to discuss the importance of financial literacy and their program at Westwood High School!
Trump Back on the International Stage. It appears Trump is making a lot of moves on the international stage. President Trump has issued an ultimatum to Hamas to release all the remaining hostages by this Saturday or “all hell is going to break loose.” In addition, President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke for around 90 minutes on the phone on Wednesday, in which Putin agreed to “immediately” begin negotiations over the war in Ukraine. This comes after the release of U.S. detainee Mark Fogel was released from Russia and the news of another American being released from Belarus. We discuss it all on NightSide!
