Student Events
Junior Achievement programs help students prepare for the future. A future that ensures their potential is not only met, but exceeded. In addition to showing students the power of believing in themselves, and teaching the crucial skills of work readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy, a cornerstone of JA programs is the importance of fair and honest competition.
Through annual national and worldwide events, JA students are able to take what they have learned in the classroom and put those skills to work as they square off to compete for a championship title!
