Celebrating Excellence in Economic and Financial Education

The RI Council for Economic Education was proud to host the 2026 RI Finance Challenge and 2026 RI Econ Challenge. These are two statewide competitions that engaged students from across Rhode Island in applying real-world financial literacy and economic knowledge.

We were thrilled to celebrate the winning teams, outstanding individual performers, and the dedicated teachers who empowered their students to rise to the challenge. Click here to see the list of winning teams!
