Requires those programs to include: (1) high standards in mathematics and related content areas, such as economics; (2) curricula delivered by high-quality teachers who complete entrepreneurship training and receive ongoing professional development; (3) hands-on activities and project-based work; (4) financial literacy education; and (5) interaction between students, teachers, and members of the business community.
