Exchange City 2006
Exchange City is a special city built for kids and run by kids. It also is a
nationally recognized, innovative economics, government and civics program
supporting a new vision of teaching and learning about American enterprise, entrepreneurism and government. Exchange City is both a hands-on learning lab
site and a curriculum that is used in the classroom and in the home. In Exchange City, students work to earn paychecks by operating
the stores, financial institution, post office, broadcast center, technology
shop, newspaper, distribution center and city hall. They also play roles as
consumers as they spend and manage their money. Students take out business
loans, pay taxes and bills, market products, make payroll and live within the
laws they make for the City.
