Murray State University Center for Economic Education

Murray State University Center for Economic Education The MSU Center for Econ Ed seeks to improve economic and financial literacy within K-12 schools in Kentucky.

The MSU Center aims to develop in K-12 young people the economic knowledge and decision making skills they will need throughout their lives. The MSU Center employs multiple strategies in pursuit of its mission—

- To support economic and entrepreneurial education training to teachers who in turn will teach students;

- To produce and distribute teaching materials for use by teachers in K-12 clas

srooms throughout the curriculum;

- To maintain an affiliation with the National Council on Economic Education and the Kentucky Council on Economic Education to draw upon their strength in national and state programming, curriculum materials, basic research and public awareness of the need for economic education;

- To be involved with local business and community organizations in implementing economic education into the service-area schools.

We had an awesome ECON CAMP earlier this week with some great kids attending! We added a lot of new games and content to this year’s camp and we’re super thankful for the help we received in putting it on from the MSU ECO department, Main Impact Federal Credit Union, and ECO students Luke Cross and Cate Anderson. Y’all were awesome! And if your child came this year and liked it, or if you missed us this year, be sure to check us out next year for our annual ECON CAMP for high school and middle school students, it’s always great fun 🤑
