The nation's largest organization dedicated to giving young people the knowledge and skills they need to own their economic success, plan for their futures, and make smart academic and economic choices.
Junior Achievement’s proven lessons in financial literacy, work and career readiness, and entrepreneurship are shown to positively impact the lives of young people. The lessons are scripted and will be taught in each classroom by a parent volunteer. The commitment for each lesson is 30min-45min and includes a total of 5 lessons. Once paired with your students teacher you will discuss the exact schedule for teaching the material.
On February 8th at 4:00 pm there is a zoom training for those parent volunteers to get familiar with the material and expectations. We appreciate your help with these efforts!
