I think this is a fantastic idea! It should be compulsory. I didn't even know what a bill was when I graduated high school!

This is something that should really be taught to high schoolers in their junior and senior years. I can't believe they consider high school as being helpful in teaching teens how to live life as adults. Well, it may help them know how to take 15% off of a pair of shoes or how they're always winners and never losers. But what about when it comes to balancing a check book or credit cards or financing a car or home. They don't have a clue. If not for my parents I would know nothing of things like that. Even at almost 30 it amazes me how easily I got into debt.
