High School Programs
Junior Achievement's High School Programs give students a closer connection between education and work. Along with the volunteer's experience, they learn the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to become involved citizens and productive workers. These semester long programs give students an opportunity to get in depth and learn about real world business.
Junior Achievement High School Programs are facilitated by community volunteers.
