    In the current economic downturn,many American schools are adding a new
Subject:financial literacy (理财).One program in Virginia even gets students out of
the classroom for a day to learn how far their money will go in the real world.  What
looks like a shopping mall is actually an educational field trip experience for a group of
young people.
    Finance Park is a special place where students apply what they have been taught in
class about money management.  The facility (设施) opened last year in Fairfax,
Virginia.  It is the fifteenth Finance Park built in the last decade by Junior Achievement
USA,a non-profit organization helping to prepare young people for financial success.
"Since the financial crisis (危机),the demand for Finance Parks around the country
has grown," says Ed Grenier,president of the Washington,DC chapter.
    Financial literacy has only recently become part of the regular subjects in Fairfax
County."Some students,some teachers,some schools did it,but now it is much
more systematic," Reilly says,"and it can ensure that all students get this background
information." That is why every eighth grade student in Fairfax County will eventually
spend a day here.
    Thirteen-year-old Sam says she has learned an important life lesson."I didn't know
how expensive everything would be." Anthony,also 13,is looking forward to telling
his parents what he learned."I'11 probably tell them I want to stay a kid a little longer
and take my time to become an adult." This isn't the end of financial studies for
Anthony and the other students here.  Virginia is one of 23 states which requires
students to take a financial education class in high school in order to graduate.
