Congratulations to the 2009 Kansas Winners!

Attention High School Teachers:

Do you teach economics?  Is economics part of your Social Studies curriculum? 

Give your students a chance to demonstrate their economic knowledge in a fun and rewarding way!  Economics Challenge is an online competition with an in-person State and National Competition.  There are beginner and advanced divisions.  Winning State teams from each division get a chance to represent Kansas in the National Semi-Finals on April 26, 2010.  Only the advanced division (Adam Smith) will have an in-person National Finals competition.  The beginner division (David Ricardo) will have an online national competition.  There are no participation fees for the in-person State Competition and lunch is provided.  Travel funding will be provided if the Adam Smith Division winning team advances to Nationals in New York.
