Finance Park-Entry

 JA Finance Park Entry Level helps students build a foundation upon which they can make intelligent lifelong financial decisions, including those decisions related to income, expenses, savings, and credit. 

 The JA Finance Park learning experience comprises 13 required teacher-taught, in-class lessons. It culminates in a hands-on budgeting simulation that is implemented at the Perdue Henson Junior Achievement Center. Additional extension activities are available for each lesson topic. Lessons are offered in a traditional classroom presentation format and in a project-based learning (PBL) format. Both formats provide educators a method of delivery that will best meet the needs of their students.
