Government Hopes To Teach Students More
THE RIO GRANDE HERALD THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18.1#7 PAGE 4
it
Many high school students their students-the tide is
are graduating these days turning as far as filling out a
knowing pretty much the return is concerned,
basics of English grammar, "Understanding Taxes" is
math, and history, but they a free instructional program
probably can't balance a which nearly 24,000 schools
checkbook, comparison incorporated into their
price shop, or fill out an
income tax return. Thanks to
"Understanding Taxes"-an
Internal Revenue Service-
sponsored course offered to
--*■ interested high schools for
curriculum in the 1979 school
year-reaching almost five
million students. The main
thrust of "Understanding
Taxes" is to teach students
when they must file a return,
the correct form and sup-
porting schedules to use,
and,generally, how to fill out
the form.
Since most students will
have limited income and
probably first file the sim-
pler one-page Form 1040A,
a line-by-line explanation of
the 1040A is offered in the
course. Students also gain
the experience of preparing
the returns based on

"practice"situations. The
course does not stop with the
1040A, however.
The regular 1040 form and
accompanying schedules
also are covered ex-
tensively. Teachers p\p!ain
when it pays to itemize
deductions on Schedule A,
and they cover listing in-
terest and dividend
payments on Schedule B.
The "Understanding Taxes"
course also touches on the
merits of filing singly or
jointly when married,
declaring estimated taxes,
and correcting or amending
previous returns.
In addition, students learn
how our tax system works
and how it is administered
by the IRS. They also, very
briefly, receive information
as to how the U.S. budgetary
system operates.
The "Understanding
6f
Taxes" course usually lasts
four to six weeks in most
high schools. All materials
for teaching the course are
supplied free by the IRS to
the participating schools,
including study guides,
teachers' manuals, and two
films Since the course is
taught within the school's
curriculum-often
portion of a
ongoing
during
government or economics
class-students can earn
credit for taking it.
If you or your school is
interested in learning more
about how to offer an
"Understanding Taxes"
course, contact your local
IRS office.
.After all, these students
will probably have to pay
taxes all their lives.
