Junior Achievement serving Berrien and Cass counties in Michigan is looking for volunteers to go into Countryside Academy and teach JA to a classroom. We will train you and provide you with all of your materials. Local business men and women, parents, retirees, high school and college students welcome. It is a fun and rewarding way to make a difference in a child's life.
This opportunity is perfect for someone who can't spend weeks in a classroom, but has a 1/2 day to volunteer.
Immediate need: JA in a Day at Countryside Academy in Benton Harbor is on November 7th. We are looking to fill classes in Kindergarten through 5 th grade for this school. Typically, the day is from about 8:00 til around 12:30pm. We provide lunch for the volunteers. The format is 5, 30-35 minutes sessions done back to back. I will provide all of the curriculum and the training needed to be successful.
Come have fun with us!
Groups and teams welcome! You can even pair up and teach together!

Description
Junior Achievement is a partnership between businesses, educators and volunteers in the community that brings real world experiences to students, empowering them to prepare for their future economic success by enhancing the relevancy of education.
Through JA programming, students are given relevant, hands-on experiences, delivered by volunteers from the local community, that help them develop the knowledge and skills they need to own their economic success, plan for their future, and make smart academic and financial choices.
At every grade level, JA's in-school programs expose students to basic business concepts and the skills that enable them to grasp real-life economics.
