At first glance it seems very difficult for me to draw a quick conclusion that high school students should pass an economic course is right o wrong, because it has both advantages and disadvantages, however, after serious consideration we can see that under most circumstances this approach will do more good than harm. This is because of several reasons, some of which are teaching the students the value of money, encouraging them to continue their studying in economics, enhancing the student's general knowledge of economics.
One of the primary reasons is that instructing economics in high school teaches them the value of money. In other words they can understand how to spend money furthermore this course able to teach them how to avoid buying unnecessary things indirectly. Especially if they have a part time job for example as a customer in a small coffee shop, they will understand this better other students who are just a consumer of their parents' money for instance in my country, Iran, lots of high school students usually don't have a job and they just spend their parents' money unlimitedly, imagine if they can't find a high paid job in their future life, in not too distant future they will transform to a poor beggar.
Another reason can be seen by every person is that in classes of this course some students may exist who find it interesting and may want to continue their education in this field, unfortunately lots of talented high school students don't know which major they want to study in university or collages after graduation from high school because they are unaware of their interests, some of them might choose medical science or engineering without any background knowledge, I believe this course provide a precious opportunity for them to examine themselves in learning economics.
The last but not the least important reason is that students of this course can understand the economics debates of the politicians, the truth of the economics data and diagrams will be visible for them, it is enlarge their general information about their country and conditions of commercialism and lots of other things which ordinary people can't perceive them. Lots of statesmen lie about the economic situations of the country, this is where students can discriminate what is really true and what is not.
As a result, I think learning a basic about economics is not only useful for high school students but also for all kind of educated person, it is recommended that people should invest a little part of their life time on learning economics
