JA Personal Finance introduces students to the importance of making wise financial choices. Students explore the role that money plays in achieving personal goals throughout life. They develop planning, goal setting, and thoughtful decision-making skills that will help them protect themselves from the unexpected financial pitfalls that plague so many adults.

 

There are five, volunteer-led sessions that complement the 24 teacher-led lessons in the complete Program.  See the Scope and Sequence for the concepts and skills taught in the JA complement.  For specific information, read the Program Summary.
