Description

Be A Game Changer!

Junior Achievement is looking for volunteers to go into Kindergarten - High School classrooms to teach students about financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and work readiness.

Opportunity details:

  • The commitment is teaching 5-7, 30–45-minute classes. This can be one class a week, one class each day for a week, or 3 classes one week and 2 the next week.

  • Teachers are flexible and willing to work with your schedule. Teachers remain in the room and are there to support you.

  • JA programs come in a kit that includes everything you need to teach the class.

  • JA program guides are easy to follow with many hands-on grade appropriate games and activities to keep the students engaged.

  • All new volunteers attend a virtual or in-person training session which will provide you with tips on teaching your JA program.

Why should you become a JA Volunteer:

  • You can help students make a connection between what they learn in the classroom and what they need to succeed in work life.

  • The students will make you smile – you get WAY more than you give!

  • The students LOVE JA!

We work with schools all over the area and you can choose one near you. There are lots of opportunities for the 24-25 school year.
