Junior Achievement of Chicago is looking for energetic volunteers to participate in discussions with seniors regarding their high school accomplishments and future post-secondary plans. Little Village High School of Multicultural Academy of Scholarship (MAS) organizes "Senior Exit Interview Day" to better prepare their students to enter the real world!
This event will take place on Wednesday, June 6 from 9:15 a.m.-11:30 a.m., at Multicultural Academy of Scholarship (MAS) during the class of 2018's "Senior Exit Interview Day."
Volunteer professionals will conduct 4-5 mock interviews with participating students, for about 15 minutes each. During the interviews, volunteers will have the opportunity to have one-on-one discussions with our graduating seniors regarding their accomplishments during their time here at MAS and help prepare them for the world of higher education and work after high school.
We are hoping this is an opportunity you would be willing to participate in!

Mission Statement
To inspire and prepare young people to succeed in the global economy.
Description
Junior Achievement is the world's largest organization dedicated to giving young people the knowledge and skills they need to own their economic success, plan for their future, and make smart academic and economic choices. In partnership with businesses and educators, JA brings the real world to students, opening their minds to their potential.
Our corporate and community volunteers deliver relevant, hands-on experiences that give students from kindergarten through high school knowledge and skills in financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurship. JA programs empower students to make a connection between what they learn in school and how it can be applied in the real world - enhancing the relevance of their classroom learning and increasing their understanding of the value of staying in school.
Throughout JA's sequential and integrated kindergarten through high school programs, students think critically and solve complex problems. Through our business, financial, and entrepreneurial educational programs, we prepare students to:
- Proactively manage their finances;
- Become entrepreneurs; and
- Develop skills that will be recognized and valued in a global workforce.
During the 2017-2018 school year, JA of Chicago successfully reached 600,222 students of all ages, races, ethnic backgrounds and physical capabilities, including at-risk youth in twelve Chicago-area and northwestern Indiana counties.
