Fall and Spring Semester Programs 
The Stock Market Game™ is an online education program used to help teach math, social studies, business, economics, and language skills while focusing on the importance of long-term saving and investment. Students in grades 4-12 participate in teams and manage a simulated investment portfolio.  Each semester program includes a 10-week competition that allows student teams to compare the performance of their portfolios with other teams in Virginia and their region.  The Spring Semester is a 15-week program and allows students to continue to manage their portfolios beyond the 10-week competition period.

Fee:  $15 per team (up to 4 students per team)

Year-long Program
This year-long Stock Market Game™ program has all the learning opportunities spread over a longer period of time. Students in grades 4-12 participate in teams and manage a simulated investment portfolio during the school year.
Fee:  $25 per team (up to 4 students per team)
