In this debate, we argued over whether if high schools had to make a choice between financial literacy electives and art classes as part of a core curriculum for students. David argued that financial literacy is one of the most essential elements of producing stable income opportunities to succeed because students need to know money and the economy work at a young age. He also argued that the creativity we get from art classes is not relevant since most people aren’t creative, but everyone has to manage money. Amit argued that financial literacy is not going to be relevant to young students because they are going to forget the information just like they forget tons of other things in school and to really make money and solve problems, there needs to be a part of the curriculum that cultivates creativity outside of the mundane other subjects so that kids are exposed to the potential of being able to express themselves and find happiness within the creative arts.
