Quotes

“It was a great experience. Isaiah has never been so excited for something academic at school. He says he knows he wants to major in finance now. He absolutely loved the whole program.”

  • Samantha Zoske, 6th Grade Parent

“I recently had the privilege of volunteering for my son Sam’s class trip to JA

  • BizTown. The various stations are well thought out, realistic and challenged the

students in a fun setting. The hands-on learning opportunity was unique and I appreciated the opportunity to be involved!”

  • Bianca Greazel, 6th Grade Parent and BizTown volunteer
