JA BizTown Summer Camp!!!
Dear Parents,
Even though school will be out for summer, learning doesn’t have to stop. Junior Achievement of the Heartland is hosting a JA BizTown summer camp June 19-22. This learning experience supports critical thinking skills and student engagement and helps them connect the dots between what they learn in school and the real world.
During the JA BizTown summer campers will journey to adulthood through daily lessons, hands-on activities, and team-building games. They will learn key concepts like problem-solving, business management, budgeting, and more!
Registration opens Monday, March 27th. Only 50 spots available.
