JA’s middle grades programs for students in grades 6-8 include economics and business curricula. The dynamic interaction between the volunteer and students promotes active learning and brings theory to life.
All JA programs are designed to support the skills and competencies identified by Missouri’s Show-Me Standards and the Partnership for 21st Century Skills. These programs also augment school-based, work-based, and connecting activities for communities with school-to-work initiatives.
