HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Legislation is on the move in Pennsylvania to require public schools to allow students to apply personal finance class credits toward high school graduation requirements. The Senate approved the bill unanimously Monday, and sent it to the House. Under the bill, a student who successfully completes a course in personal finance can apply up to one credit to satisfy social studies, math, business education or family and consumer science requirements for graduation.
