Every high school senior enrolled in Economics with Financial Literacy throughout Orange County will learn valuable financial literacy skills preparing them for the real world, thanks to a partnership between Junior Achievement of Central Florida (JACF) and Orange County Public Schools. The JA Finance Park Virtual program helps students build a foundation to make intelligent lifelong financial decisions related to income, expenses, savings, and credit. The program culminates in a hands-on online budgeting simulation.
Seeking to connect students with the real world, the organization is asking for volunteers from the local business community to donate 3-6 hours their time to instruct on the following dates:
Wednesday, November 9th (Lesson: Paying for Postsecondary Education)
Thursday, November 17th (Lesson: Identity Theft)
Wednesday, November 30th (Lesson: Volunteer Choice)
