 Junior
Achievement is a partnership between the business community,
educators and volunteers working
together to inspire young people to dream big and reach their
potential. JA’s hands-
on programs teach the key concepts
of work
readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy.
Junior Achievement of Montana provides economic education
to students in schools
and youth programs from kindergarten
through high school age throughout Montana.
We are dedicated
to preparing Montana students for the future.
Junior Achievement
(JA) programs help prepare our young people for the real world by
showing them how to generate income and effectively manage it, how
to create jobs which make their communities more robust,
and how
to apply entrepreneurial thinking to the workplace. Students put
these lessons into action and learn
the value of contributing to
their community. JA’s
unique approach allows trained community volunteers to deliver
fun, age-appropriate curricula while sharing their real world
experience with students.
Our
classroom
volunteers transform the key concepts into a message that inspires
and empowers students
to believe in themselves, showing our kids
that they can make a difference in the world. We
accomplish this
by sending trained volunteers from the community
into classrooms to serve as role models and share their expertise.
They utilize integrated, sequential and age-appropriate
curricula that help young people use information, apply basic
skills, think critically and solve complex problems.
Students
often attest that the knowledge and practical skills they have
gained through participation in JA
provide a foundation of
life-long tools for future success. Help us inspire
and prepare young people to succeed
in a global economy and become
our future leaders. Your
involvement will help the next generation make a difference.
We invite you to take up the challenge. Get involved today!
