ALL OF THE RUSH – NONE OF THE RISK!

Junior Achievement of the Bluegrass is proud to announce our inaugural Stock Market Challenge where students will experience the thrill of the Wall Street trading floor!

The JA Stock Market Challenge and JA Take Stock in Your Future program introduces high school students to the fundamentals of stocks, the impact of world events on the stocks, long-term investing and how investors make investing decisions and diversify their portfolios. Students then get to put their learning into practice at the Stock Market Challenge, a hands-on and high-tech immersive simulation. This friendly competition is a high-energy, invaluable learning experience.

Both the JA Take Stock in Your Future curriculum and the JA Stock Market Challenge event are offered at no cost to schools.
