Club coordinator Heather Farr recaps this first year of Rogers Rotary’s
involvement in Junior Achievement at Hassan Elementary.
Rogers Rotary made it possible for each 3rd grade class to participate
in Junior Achievement this year. Four Rotarians volunteered their time to teach the “Our City” lesson plans. The volunteers worked with the students once a week for five weeks to teach the students about careers, skills needed for specific jobs, and how businesses contribute to a city.
Thank you to Chuck Christian, Michael Vetter, Dave Christian, Floyd Ingersoll, and Hiram Stratton for volunteering during this first year! To continue during the 2012-13 school year, we will again need four volunteers. Interested? Email heather@visionstaffingsolutions.com.
Junior Achievement empowers young people to own their economic success. The volunteer-delivered program supports K-12 to foster work
readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy skills, and use experiential learning to inspire kids to dream big and reach their potentials.
