The Young Entrepreneur group is teaming up with Junior Achievement again to provide additional support and enrichment for our young entrepreneurs. Junior Achievement is a nationwide organization that has volunteer-delivered programs to foster work-readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy skills. Junior Achievement uses experiential learning to inspire students to dream big and reach their potential. The program McMurray Young Entrepreneurs will participate in this year is called JA Our Region. JA Our Region provides students with a practical approach to starting a business while preparing them to be entrepreneurial in their thinking to meet the requirements of a demanding and ever-changing workforce.
*** While we do strongly suggest that students interested in becoming Young Entrepreneurs in the Spring attend the Junior Achievement program in the Fall, it is not a required prerequisite. Conversely, students who would like to participate in the Fall Junior Achievement program are not required to participate in the Young Entrepreneur Challenge in the Spring.
****Meetings will be at 8:00 am, in the MPR****
