Accomplishments
Junior Achievement of the Upper Midwest (JAUM) inspires and prepares young people to succeed in a global economy. Through a partnership with business and education, more than 100,000 area students, K-12, were taught financial literacy, entrepreneurship principles and college and work readiness skills. <p>
JA's focus over the past two years has been to deepen our impact on students at-risk of dropping out of high school. JAUM has grown programs focused on improving financial literacy skills for students in middle and high school.
Current Goals
JAUM's goals are to strengthen the impact our programs are having on our young people. We will measure that in several ways:<p>
1. Impact an additional 11,000 students.<p>
2. Grow programs focused on high school students to inspire and prepare students for post-secondary education. <p>
3. Grow programs focused on financial literacy.<p>
4. Evaluate impact JA programs are having on student's learning by conducting pre and post tests. <p>
5. Maximize the JA learning facility by expanding summer programs and offering young people rich learning opportunities during out-of-school time.
