The St. Lucie County school board voted 5-0 to adopt new personal finance and money-management instructional materials for the 2025–26 school year. Superintendent Dr. Prince recommended adoption during the meeting, and the motion passed with no recorded dissent.
Dr. Prince told the board, “I just recommend the board adopt the proposed personal finance and money management in 25, 26 instructional materials.” The board then moved and seconded the measure; the motion carried 5-0, according to the public transcript.
The materials were presented under the agenda item identified by staff as an approval for the management class. Board members asked no substantive questions during the discussion and offered no amendments. The superintendent and staff framed the item as an adoption decision rather than an informational briefing.
The board did not attach additional conditions or a timeline for implementation in the discussion recorded in the transcript. Details about the specific publisher, scope (grade levels), or cost of the adopted package were not specified in the transcript.
The vote concludes the item on instructional materials for the coming school year; staff will proceed with next steps for classroom deployment and teacher support consistent with district procedures.
