WHAT IS JUNIOR ACHIEVEMENT? It is the world's largest and fastest-growing non-profit economic education organization. Through 156 domestic affiliates, such as JA of Montana, JA Worldwide reaches over 4 million U.S. students each year in cities, suburbs and rural areas, as well as over 1 million students each year in more than 100 countries.
OUR MISSION: Junior Achievement of Montana, educates and inspires school aged children to believe in themselves and their community through an understanding and valuing of the free enterprise system. |
We do this by developing . . .
- the desire in our youth to stay in school and appreciate lifelong learning
- positive attitudes toward work and contributing to a diverse society
- business and education partnerships that create a bridge between the classroom and the workplace
- critical skills that produce success
We accomplish this by . . .
- sending volunteers from the community into area K-12 classrooms to serve as role models and to share their expertise
- using integrated, sequential and age-appropriate curricula that help young people use information, apply basic skills, think critically and solve complex problems
