Babylon High School Gets a Blue Star Award

Local students get kudos for personal financing excellence.

Twenty-eight students in Andrew Marulis’s Personal Financing class at Babylon High School achieved 90 percent or better on the 2010-2011 New York State financial literacy exam administered by the Working in Support of Education (WISE) program.

Through the WISE Financial Literacy Certification Program (FLCP), a school is designated a Blue Star School if 75% of the students taking the class pass the certification test with an average score of 80%.
