Saint Paul, Minn -- Target is sponsoring a school-wide Junior Achievement (JA) Blitz Day at Saint Paul Public Schools’ Webster Magnet Elementary on Wednesday, October 17. Staff volunteers from Target and US Bank will partner to work in K - 6 grade classrooms. Students will work with interactive materials and activities around the themes of free enterprise and work readiness. It is an opportunity for students to learn from business people and see the ties between school and work.
Junior Achievement brings the real world to students with hands-on experiences. JA Blitz begins at 8:10 a.m., with sessions ending around 11:30 a.m. in primary classrooms, and at approximately 12:30 p.m. in grades 3-6.
Webster Magnet is located at 707 Holly Avenue in Saint Paul.
