NJCubScouter 1389 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Two million dollars spent to teach scouts how to be thrifty? It's not Scouts. It's every student in every school in the state of Florida. It still seems kind of pricey, considering that the cost is for materials, lesson plans and training, but the teaching itself is done by the school district faculty, or at least that is my understanding. And the focus areas of their in-school program, from their web site, www.learningforlife.org, are: Academic, social, ethical, and character development Critical and creative thinking Conflict resolution and decision making Interpersonal relationships Practical life skills Self-esteem Writing and language arts Citizenship and personal fitness Link to post Share on other sites
