In-School Programs  

Junior Achievement’s Elementary School Programs are the foundation of its k-12 curricula. Seven sequential themes, each with five hands-on activities, as well as two capstone experiences, work to change kids' lives by helping them understand business and economics.
Junior Achievement has several highly effective programs for middle grade and junior high school students that reinforce the value of education and teach students about the future economic benefits of staying in school. Students will be introduced to many economic concepts and useful facts about the working world.

              

The Middle Grade programs build on concepts the students learned in Junior Achievement's Elementary School Program and help teens make difficult decisions about how to best prepare for their educational and professional future. The programs supplement standard social studies curricula and develop communication skills that are essential to success in the business world.
As high school students begin to position themselves for their future, there are many unanswered questions about what lies ahead. Junior Achievement's High School Programs help students make informed, intelligent decisions about their future, and fosters skills that will be highly useful in the business world.
With a range of different programs, Junior Achievement teaches about concepts from microeconomics and macroeconomics to free enterprise. The volunteers bring real-life business experience and guidance into the classroom at a time that represents an essential crossroads for young people.
