JA Inspire Virtual is more than a career fair; it brings together the business community and local schools and is designed to help launch middle school and high school students into their future—high school, college, and careers beyond.
Lace up your aprons with 1921 Catering Chef Kate Rudasill and join us for our 4 week online series to get kids in the kitchen while learning fun financial lessons!
With schools closing, Junior Achievement is providing free online resources to teachers and parents. We are doing this so our kids can spend more time planning for and dreaming about tomorrow, and less time worrying about today. We are committed to doing this until we can all be certain again.
