Chairman’s Letter
Dear Community:
Leonard Miller
Since 1954, Junior Achievement has been making a positive difference in the lives of our youth. No other
organization has the reach and impact that JA has in educating our youth on the virtues of the free
enterprise system and instilling in them a solid foundation of financial literacy skills. This past school year,
the organization partnered with over 200 schools offering 19 programs which spans the entire K-12
curricula impacting 24,994 students.
These accomplishments are made possible because the business community provides both the financial
resources and volunteers. In fact, 1,168 business people volunteered to present a JA program providing
148,419 educational contact hours during the 2011-2012 school year.
Evaluations show time and again JA provides those who volunteer or financially support JA a Return On
Investment (ROI) through a more educated and informed populace who understand how to prosper in our
economic system.
Junior Achievement collaborates with other statewide organizations to leverage limited resources.
Collaborations with groups such as the Colorado Council of Economic Education, the Colorado Jump$tart
Coalition, the Colorado Department of Education, the Federal Reserve Bank – Denver Branch and our
sister organization in Denver, Junior Achievement Rocky Mountain, Inc., help spread the message to all
communities throughout the state that Junior Achievement provides a rich curriculum that reinforces the
Colorado mandate for financial literacy throughout the K-12 curriculum.
The organization needs your help to make sure today’s young people understand and value our American
Free Enterprise System. Junior Achievement of Southern Colorado, Inc. has in place a network that
delivers economic knowledge to youth. We invite you to join us in passing the torch of knowledge of
the free enterprise system on to the generation of business leaders and entrepreneurs.
Sincerely,
Leonard Miller
Chairman of the Board | Junior Achievement of Southern Colorado, Inc.

Programs
Elementary
Students in kindergarten through fifth grade are
introduced to the basic personal economic
issues, and the role of families and social responsibility in the local economy. They examine
planning decisions in a city, economic resources
within states and regions, and how businesses
need workers who can meet the demands of the
job market. The After-School Program teaches
personal financial and business skills through
innovative and fun activities. The JA curriculum is
designed to tie closely with state standards.

Middle School
Already focusing on the importance of school and
career, programs in the sixth, seventh, and eighth
grade encompass business value and decisions
while reinforcing the concepts of entrepreneurship and international trade.
High School
As students’ interests and needs mature, the
classroom focus turns to how economics relate
to their lives. They learn basic financial planning,
workplace ethics and skills such as budgeting
and investing. And through a sophisticated online
simulation, many get first-hand experience in
running a virtual business. JA volunteers provide
positive adult role models and lead students
toward workforce readiness.
21st Century Skills Forum/Explore Your Possibilities
Approximately 550 area high school students gathered on Thursday, January 12 for
a unique and inspiring career workshop.
Event Purpose
The 21st Century environment is one of rapid communication, action, mobility and
change; therefore, the 21st Century Forum was established to provide students with
an opportunity to jump start their career exploration for the world beyond.
The Framework for 21st Century Learning
www.21stcenturyskills.org
Event Goal
Increase student interest in emerging national and global issues and the education
and skills needed for related careers within these areas.
General William Shelton, Commander, Air Force Space Command
stresses to the students, “There’s a huge payoff in your future.”
