JA BizTown Contact Person Director of Capstone Programs, Jennifer Baldwin Junior Achievement of the Upper Midwest 1800 White Bear Avenue, Maplewood, MN Phone, Fax
2 Junior Achievement Organizational Overview Junior Achievement (JA) was founded nationally in 1919 for the purpose of educating and inspiring high school students to value free enterprise, business and economics; JA was offered locally in Today, JA teaches students K-12 about workforce preparedness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy. JA Mission: To Inspire and prepare young people to succeed in the global economy JA in Action: Junior Achievement connects kids with business people, so kids can get a hands-on, realworld experience in how to make and manage money in this global economy. In return, JA lets businesses connect with kids, gives employees leadership opportunities that help prepare kids for a future in business, and brings teams together through volunteering. About the Volunteers: More than 7,000 JA classroom volunteers teach 110,000+ students throughout the Upper Midwest. They come from all walks of life, including business people, college students, retirees, teachers, parents and even some high school students. These dedicated individuals are the backbone of our organization. Regional Impact 130,000 students; 50 percent within the Twin Cities metro Minnesota, North Dakota & western Wisconsin 500 Schools 4,485 Classrooms; 85 percent elementary 7,000+ Community Volunteers JA Programs K-12 7 key content areas: business, citizenship, economics, entrepreneurship, ethics/character, financial literacy, and career development. Includes three JA Capstone programs [JA BizTown, JA Finance Park, JA Titan] where we take the theory of classroom-based economic curriculum and apply it in a simulated real world environment. Proven Impact JA is one of a few global non-profits to use independent, third-party evaluators to gauge the impact of its programs. Findings prove that JA has a positive impact. For example: JA middle school students were significantly more likely to aspire toward college when they reached high school and they were more likely to hold higher career aspirations. Most JA High School students worked at least part-time during the school year, whereas only about one-quarter of students in general worked during the academic year. JA students were more likely to enter college immediately after high school. The more JA programs students participated in (elementary and secondary), the more likely they were to participate in entrepreneurial activities after leaving high school. JA Worldwide 2007 Page 2
3 ROLE OF THE VOLUNTEER IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER Provide guidance and assistance to students. Conduct scheduled staff meetings.

Be certain break and lunch schedules are followed. Remind students to eat quickly during their second break, as this is their final shopping time also. LOCATION OF IMPORTANT INFORMATION Emergency information is located in the back of the Volunteer Manual. Review this information with the students. Complete student job responsibilities are found on the Student Simulation Clipboards. Try to read each job description before students arrive to have an understanding of what each will be doing.

Your lunch may be taken during the students second break period also. We do ask that you allow students to be seated at the Café tables first and you eat as tables become available.
