Inspiring students Inspiring students Inspiring students Inspiring students and equipping them with the skills and tools they will need to be successful in the workforce is essential in today’s world. JA programming, starting in Kindergarten and extending through twelfth grade, offers young people opportunities to learn, grow, and prosper as they cope with a challenging economic climate. The thousands of individuals and organizations who give of their time, talents, and resources are the reason that today’s students will succeed. I sincerely appreciate the energy and dedication that JA’s Board of Directors, volunteers, and teachers offer to our organization. Because of these individuals, Middle Tennessee students can gain the knowledge they need to become tomorrow’s CEOs, leading the next generation of decision makers to build better communities.

Junior Achievement inspires and prepares young people to succeed in a global economy.
“The earlier that you can have a positive impact on someone’s life the better the
chance of getting results.”

Elementary School Elementary School Elementary School Elementary School JA’s Elementary School programs include seven sequential themes for Kindergarten through sixth grade students. Students progressively learn concepts centering around the economics related to families, communities, cities, and
regions. Hands-on activities help to reinforce the student’s learning by allowing them to connect their classroom learning with the
real-world.
Middle School Middle School Middle School Middle School JA’s Middle School programs reinforce the value of education and teach students about the future economic benefits of staying in school. Programs build upon the Elementary concepts and challenge students to make decisions concerning
their future, both educationally and professionally. Students also begin to learn vital workforce skills such as communication and
problem solving.
High School High School High School High School JA’s High School programs help students make informed, intelligent decisions about their future and cultivate skills that will be useful in the business world. Volunteers work to bridge the classroom and the Board room by fostering real-
world work skills and financial literacy. Students gain the knowledge and motivation that they need to graduate and become
successful members of the workforce.
Job Shadow Job Shadow Job Shadow Job Shadow JA’s Job Shadow program allows students to see how the world of work truly operates. High School students spend a day experiencing all of the components that make up a typical day in the workforce. Whether in a meeting room, a
recording studio, or an office, students have the opportunity to find out what it takes to prepare for and acquire the job of their
dreams.
Junior Achievement’s classroom programs are designed to build upon each other as students progress in school. Students are inspired to be an active part of the economy—from helping their families to shadowing a business executive. Programs are offered at no cost to teachers and volunteers, but are fully funded by generous community supporters. For only $34 per student, young people can be equipped with the skills they need for success in life. We can shape tomorrow’s CEOs today by instilling students with financial literacy knowledge, critical thinking skills, and business ethics.
““““JA BizTown is a wonderful experience for character building as well as life
skills needed for the future.”
-Dana Smith Parent Volunteer,
Benny Bills Elementary School
Classroom Programs
JA BizTown programming is offered to schools at a nominal fee thanks to generous
community supporters; costs provided by sponsors are $60 per student. Ford Motor Credit
joined the JA BizTown effort in December 2008, providing 100 students the opportunity to
spend a day in the city. JA Board Member Dave LeBreux presented the school with gifts
from Ford and accepted a key to the city from the JA BizTown Mayor. Target also offered
support by sponsoring transportation for 100 students in May 2009, allowing them to be
inspired by the opportunities that the program delivers.
The 14 shops in JA BizTown can be sponsored by companies and organizations from the area. Sponsors have the opportunity to
fully brand and outfit their shop to receive maximum marketing benefits in thanks for their investment. Mars Pet Care US opened
the Pedigree Dog Store in JA BizTown, providing merchandise for students to sell in the shop, including adoptable dogs, t-shirts,
and rubber bracelets. The business has become one of the most popular for students, with its products in high demand for citizens.

Nashville Mayor Karl Dean visited JA BizTown on November 18, 2008, spending time with students from Mt. View Elementary School. Mayor Dean was interviewed by the Newspaper and TV Studio, received a snack from the Restaurant, and spoke with business CEOs. The JA BizTown Mayor read a proclamation to her fellow townspeople and presented Mayor Dean with a key to the city, welcoming him as an honored guest among the JA BizTown Citizens.
JA BizTown truly brings classroom learning to life for 5th-grade students. The program is located at the JA of Middle Tennessee headquarters in Nashville, where students spend a day learning how to run a business, earn a
paycheck, manage a checkbook, and pay off a business loan. Before their visit, students undergo six weeks of
curriculum-based learning at school so that they are fully prepared to be a JA
BizTown citizen. After applying and interviewing for a job, the students are hired
in one of JA BizTown’s 14 shops as CEOs, Sales Managers, CFOs, Reporters,
Bank Tellers, or Radio Disc Jockeys; students even have an election to select the
Mayor of the town. The curriculum and simulation of this program vividly
illustrate the connection between hard work and tangible success while allowing
students to gain a firsthand understanding of their roles as citizens, consumers,
and participants in a free-market economy.
JA Volunteers JA Teachers
Junior Achievement’s committed teachers understand the immense value JA programs bring to their students. That is why, year after year, Middle Tennessee educators believe in this program and register to host volunteers in their classrooms. JA programs give teachers an opportunity to provide their students with lessons in time management, teamwork, oral and written communication skills, and leadership, among many others. Not only will these skills help students to succeed in the workplace as adults, these concepts also help students perform better in their classrooms. Junior Achievement helps shape well-rounded individuals who will grow to become tomorrow’s business leaders, corporate executives, community activists, mothers, fathers, and neighbors. Together, Junior Achievement and Middle Tennessee teachers are influencing a strong generation for the future.
During the 2008-2009 school year, 1,803 teachers from 257 schools recognized the importance of Junior Achievement and hosted a JA volunteer in their classrooms. Teachers from 68 schools trained students in financial literacy, work place skills, and responsible citizenship through the JA BizTown curriculum. Additionally, 40 teachers allowed their high schoolers to leave the classroom for a day to shadow a professional in an area of interest to the student through JA’s Job Shadow program. Through these combined efforts, 44,833 students benefited from valuable JA curriculum.
Junior Achievement’s volunteers are the lifeblood of the organization. In 2008-2009, more than 2,100 individuals donated their time, talents, and resources to bring JA’s educational programming to Middle Tennessee’s students. Through teaching the traditional multi-week classroom format, hosting high schoolers during Job Shadow days, mentoring citizens in JA BizTown, and implementing JA in a Day events at 12 local elementary schools (in which all JA lessons are taught in one day instead of over a period of several weeks), Junior Achievement volunteers impacted the lives of nearly 45,000 students throughout the region.

An Unprecedented Milestone was achieved in May 2009 as dedicated Junior Achievement volunteer Suzanne Bingham taught her 100th JA class! In honor of this accomplishment, JA staff members and Suzanne’s Ford Motor Credit Company co-workers presented her with an award at the conclusion of the class at Paragon Mills Elementary School in Nashville. Nashville Mayor Karl Dean also recognized Suzanne with a special proclamation highlighting her accomplishments.
A volunteer for more than 10 years, Ms. Bingham has been a JA Volunteer of the Year, received the 2007 Presidential Service Award, and was invited by President Bush to attend his Remarks on Volunteering on the White House lawn in September 2008.
“Based on my passion for the Junior Achievement organization and working with young children, I will continue to do all I can to volunteer for as many
teachers and students as possible.” -Suzanne Bingham,
in regards to teaching 100 JA classes
“JA volunteers provide children with special community hands-on collaborative lessons: an approach to learning in which children thrive!”

Pam Wright Pam Wright Pam Wright Pam Wright never answered “travel agent” when she was asked as a child what she wanted to be when she grew up. But the CEO, owner and founder of Nashville’s Wright Travel clearly found her passion in helping individuals and companies book
flights, business trips, and vacations. Now she is dedicated to
helping students find their passions.
On behalf of Wright Travel, Pam made a commitment to fund
high school-level programming for Junior Achievement of Middle
Tennessee. The $75,000 contribution will underwrite these
programs for the next three years.
“As a corporate citizen of Middle Tennessee, I believe Wright
Travel has a responsibility to participate in programs like this
and support organizations that work to improve the educational
experience for high school students,” she said. “Programs like
JA need support from local companies and citizens, or they can’t
be successful in
fulfilling their
valuable mission.”
After making this commitment, Pam wanted to experience first-hand the
impact JA makes on Middle Tennessee’s students. In May 2009, Pam shared her
entrepreneurial experiences with Nashville students in a Hillwood High School AVID
class, a program designed for first-generation, college-potential students who
sometimes need extra encouragement to achieve their dreams.
The story about Wright Travel’s donation and Pam’s participation in Junior
Achievement appeared in the Nashville Business Journal and The Tennessean.

Community support Community support Community support Community support and a strong Board of Directors make Junior Achievement one of the premiere organizations in the Nashville community. The students in Middle Tennessee could not receive the programming that JA volunteers so graciously provide without an outpouring of support that comes from our constituents. JA’s Board is a diverse group of men and women who are involved in many different organizations and efforts in the area. From FrankTown to Girl Scouts of America, or W.O. Smith to CABLE, JA Board Members are some of the busiest and most dedicated business leaders in Nashville. I am proud to be a part of this group of leaders, all of whom are united by one goal: to provide the JA programs that will prepare students for today’s workforce.

Tennessee. Good deeds and accomplishments by our teachers and volunteers,
as well as highlights from our special events, were covered by media outlets
across the region. This media attention garnered 23 million media
impressions, valued at $7.3 million in advertising dollars.

investor’s contribution. JA works to not only be good stewards of the money
received but to also promote the relationships among donors throughout the
Middle Tennessee community. JA recognizes the value of these
collaborations and strives to spread the word of community involvement
throughout the region.

Special Events Special Events Special Events Special Events are an exciting part of Junior Achievement’s fundraising efforts. Three diverse events were held during the financial year to raise money and community awareness for
JA’s programming.
On December 9, 2008, Board Members and community supporters invited more than 360
people to learn about JA’s mission at the Inspire and Admire
Breakfast, presented by Caterpillar Financial. Guests heard from students, a teacher, a
volunteer, and a Board Member about the important role that Junior Achievement plays in the
community. $50,000 was raised to support JA in the 18 counties it serves.
Middle Tennessee was taken over by pirates as 1,500 bowlers from 40 companies joined
together to raise money during “Bowling on the High Seas,” the Bridgestone Americas Trust
Fund Music City Bowl-a-Thon. Individual fundraisers reached out to family members, friends,
and colleagues to support JA. More than $200,000 was raised for JA programming; bowlers
celebrated their efforts with a great day of costumes, prizes, jokes, and fun at the bowling alley.
The Franklin American Mortgage Golf Classic was held on June 11 & 12, 2009, at
Gaylord Springs Golf Links. Hit a High Note for JA, complete with silent and live
auctions, dinner, and entertainment, allowed for networking and additional fundraising
the evening before the tournament. Playing in two rounds the next day, 205 golfers hit
the links and enjoyed a great day on the golf course, receiving golfer gifts and earning
awards for their talents. More than $300,000 was raised for JA programs through this
premiere event.
