With a new school year right around the corner, Social Security has made resources available for educators in hopes of educating youth about the purpose of the organization. 

For teachers interested in educating their students about Social Security, Jack Myers explains their website offers everything from lesson plans to quizzes to aid teachers.

Myers believes it is important to educate students who are preparing to enter the workforce about Social Security. He says it's never too early to let students know they need to plan for retirement.

The Social Security educator toolkit is available at www.socialsecurity.gov/thirdparty/educators.html.
