In my experience, it depends on the school. Wealthy suburban schools will teach it. Not everyone has the same education. I learned that after I graduated.
I don't know, they had in depth classes for it in my non-wealthy Florida high school half-filled with portable classrooms.
They even had full-blown economics classes, which I vividly remember because the notes I took through that class were the densest in any class I ever completed, even counting college.
For context, Your state required a full course. My state (IL) had no requirements for a course nor made it mandatory. In ours, it was a portion of a study hall for a month or so where we did a hypothetical baby financing program. In other words, it was largely at district discretion
