High School Can Be Fun!!!

For those of you thinking, "I'm not so sure about volunteering for a high school class", think again! JA has many high school programs that are game and activity-based, which means not only a fun 45 minutes a week for the students, but also a great time for you.

JA's newest high school program is JA Exploring Economics. Through seven 45-minute lessons, students will be given age-appropriate examples to learn how the economy works and how things like supply and demand and trade affect them on a daily basis. For example in the first lesson, students will be asked to plan a concert based on different economic systems...not your typical high school Economics lesson!

JA has many high school volunteer opportunities this fall semester. For more information on how you can get in the classroom, contact Jenny Hobson at jhobson@jafortworth.org or (817) 731-0838 x 226.

Remember, the time you personally share with these students can help them realize their potential...and you may learn a little in the process!
