THE U.S. Senator Thad Cochran

FORUM ON AMERICAN ENTERPRISE

A fund-raising luncheon for the Mississippi Council on Economic Education

Tuesday, October 14, 2008 – Jackson Marriott

 Enterprise education – good old-fashioned basic economics – is back in Mississippi classrooms, thanks to the enterprise initiative of the Mississippi Council on Economic Education.  One semester of economics will be required for the class entering high school in 2008 and with encouragement and support from State Superintendent Dr. Hank Bounds, teachers are seeking professional development to competently teach the new required economics education curriculum.  Since its inception, 25,819 Mississippi students participated in the Stock Market Game, learning first-hand how the stock market and the free enterprise system works. But only with your help can we sustain and grow this important program for students.

 Prior to 2003, Mississippi was the only state in the nation without a Council on Economic Education.  Thanks to the encouragement of U.S. Senator Thad Cochran, the National Council on Economic Education organized an effort to help Mississippi leaders launch a program here in the Magnolia State.
