Please visit the new page to apply.
Be in the classroom and teach hands on lessons with 5th graders on work readiness skills. This is a 5 hour commitment throughout a month/ spring semester where you will be interacting with students and teaching them about the work force. Topics included: the nation's free market system, entrepreneurial thinking, and career clusters. This is a great way to get 5th graders thinking about possible career choices and planning for their future.
Volunteer does not need to have a background in career and technical training, just needs to have basic reading and writing skills! All materials come prepackaged and the Junior Achievement Staff will train the volunteer through the lessons and materials in our office during volunteer orientation. Commitment is 5 hours, which is broken down throughout a month or semester. Each lesson is approximately an hour long.
*All volunteers fill out volunteer conduct forms and may undergo a background check.
