5th Grade Junior Achievement Partnership
As part of our STEAM and College and Career programs, all of our 5th grade students are learning about entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and work-readiness skills! Junior Achievement of Northern California has been providing the curriculum and training volunteers from local businesses come into all of our 5th grade classrooms this fall.
Through hands-on classroom activities, this Common Core aligned program provides students with practical information about the our nation’s businesses and careers.

It also introduces the need for entrepreneurial and innovative thinking to meet the requirements of high-growth, high-demand careers.
This partnership is one way that our district is preparing our students for college and career success and to be globally competitive in the workplace. A big thank you to all of our volunteers from Bank of The West, eTrade, Union Bank, NASA, Microsoft, HSBC, PwC, and NetApp! In the spring, all of our 5th graders will go to local businesses to participate in a Junior Achievement Social Innovation Camp!
