What:
Through JA Personal Finance Blended Model, students experience the interrelationship between today's financial decisions and future financial freedom. To achieve financial health and wellness, they learn about money-management strategies, including earning, employment and income, budgeting, savings, credit and debt, consumer protection, smart shopping, risk management, and investing. At the conclusion of this program, students will be able to identify how their personal finances affect their quality of life. They will understand how their financial choices will be the basis of how they get what they want and need.
Lesson 1: Earning, Employment, & Income- Monday, November 18th Lesson 2/3: Budgeting & Savings- Monday, December 2nd Lesson 4/5: Credit and Debt & Consumer Protection- Monday, December 9th All lessons will be taught 4:00-5:00PM *Please note that they are second-language English speakers.

Junior Achievement (JA) programs are grade level specific and incorporate the areas of financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and work readiness. We have programs ranging from kindergarten to 12th grade.
No teaching experience is required to teach a JA program! Our staff will provide training and will give you a classroom kit complete with all materials needed to teach the lessons, including a guidebook.
