As a community, we must fight "learning loss" during the extended school break caused by COVID-19. In addition to curriculum, we are committed to providing technical support to both educators and non-educators (parents, guardians, community volunteers, etc).

All Junior Achievement programming aligns with Common Core State Standards, National Standards for Financial Literacy, and 21st Century Skills.

Please view the below grade-specific virtual programs below and learn more by clicking the buttons to the left:

Grades 3-6th: JA More Than Money - recommended for parents

Grades 6-12th: JA Virtual Programs for Teacher Implementation - recommended for teachers

Grades 7-12th: JA Finance Park Virtual - self-guided simulation

We will be adding more versions of our curriculum as soon as we are able to render our content even more user friendly for those community members who are not educators. Please check back for updates.

Request a Presenter to Teach Curriculum

A Junior Achievement Volunteer teaches students

Junior Achievement lessons are delivered by volunteers from the community. These presenters are prepared by JA to facilitate engaging learning activities that focus on financial literacy, work and career readiness, and entrepreneurship. This results in an enriched learning experience that helps students make the connection between what they learn in school and the world outside the classroom.

Steps to Request a Presenter

1) Request Info

Once you’ve decided to have a JA volunteer in your classroom, fill out the form on this website. You will receive information on next steps.

2) Pick Schedule

You will be able to coordinate a schedule that works for your class either online or in conjunction with a JA representative.

3) Meet Presenter

Once a volunteer is identified for your class, JA will connect you with the presenter to discuss roles, expectations, and logistics.

4) Empower Students with Standards-Based Education

After all details are in place, the JA volunteer will deliver lessons to your students either virtually or in-person.
