In January 2018, the State Board of Education adopted the National Jump$tart Standards. The Jump$tart Standards supplement the current College, Career and Civic Life (C3) State Standards for Social Studies, Common Core State Standards in Mathematics (CCSSM), and Family and Consumer Sciences Education Grade Expectations. The state also created a crosswalk to help educators integrate standards across all curriculum.

There is not a required course for graduation; however, the standards are required to be taught across the curriculum. When the Vermont State Board of Education considered the adoption of Financial Literacy standards, it was with the understanding that the standards would be interdisciplinary in nature.

No

School districts are given local control as to how to assess the financial literacy standards.
