It all begins in the classroom!

Through in-school partnerships with educators and school districts, our programs have expanded to blend JA’s experiential learning with traditional education to bring relevance, authenticity and application into everyday learning.

Our goal is to energize students around academics and their future possibilities. Together, we will empower the next generation with the knowledge, capacity and motivation to thrive; a generation of tenacious individuals who are primed to navigate today’s complex economy and discover how decisions today can impact tomorrow.

We want to come alongside you, as you prepare the next generation to succeed in life. Partner with JA to bring our important financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurship lessons to your students. Our focus is on inspiring students to be financially capable and tenacious, equipped with the tools to solve problems creatively, manage risk effectively, and welcome opportunity. Without educators, our work to take learning beyond the classroom and show students its relevance would be impossible.
