Operating since 1919 nationally, and 1953 in Washington, Junior Achievement (JA) is a nonprofit organization providing a series of business, economics and life-skills programs to enhance the education of young people. The JA dynamic is found in the hands-on, interactive materials that comprise its business and economics curricula and the community volunteers who bring the programs to life on a daily basis.
More than 3,000 community volunteers are invited into classrooms to partner with educators, working with young people and providing important adult mentorship. JA serves students in 69 school districts throughout Western Washington and the Tri-Cities and will reach 105,000 kindergarten through twelfth grade students during the 2006-07 school year. |
