School students in Bridgeport learned the 'A', 'B' 'C's' of financial literacy today during a visit from state and local officials.

State and local leaders met with students at Bridgeport's Warren Harding High School this morning.

It's all part of Financial Literacy Month.

Officials say it's important for people of all ages to learn how to take control of their financial future.

State Comptroller Sean Scanlon says the biggest mistake people make is not planning for their financial future.
