...because I believe children are the future!  I know it sounds cliche-ish, but think about it -- let it sink in -- how are we educating our children? Every little bit helps!  Thank you for your support!!

From JA's web:

Junior Achievement of Central Virginia (JACV) is dedicated to empowering young people to own their economic success and succeed in a global economy.

JA Job Shadow is another great program for high school students that prepares them for the future.

Students participate in three classroom sessions focusing on

• Career research, preparation and job-hunting tools
• Professionalism and ethics in the workplace
• Professional action plans

The students then get to visit a local company to learn about the jobs available in that industry and what skills are required and desired.
