Fellow Canton Rotarians, please consider volunteering your time for our Rotary 'Junior Achievement-In-A-Day' programs at Harter Elementary School on Thursday February 25th and Dueber Elementary School on Wednesday April 6th.  
 
We will be teaching 'JA Our Community' to second graders on both of those days. This program teaches these students about business and jobs in a community, working for a wage (the students get 'paid' to make paper donuts!), taxes and how taxes pay for government services and workers, and how money moves through a community.
 
The kids LOVE this program! And they love having US present it!
 
Time commitment is 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. We are striving to have enough volunteers to have two-person teams in each classroom. We will have 6 classrooms at Harter (target 12 volunteers total) and 4 classrooms at Dueber (target 8 volunteers total).
 
Teaching these valuable Junior Achievement lessons is easy and fun! JA provides all of the materials for the classes, including an easy-to-follow volunteer guidebook. JA also provides training.
 
If you've volunteered before, I invite you to join us again. If you have not volunteered before and are curious, I invite you to contact me or speak to your fellow Rotarians who have volunteered in the past to find out how easy and rewarding it can be.
 
Thanks! We hope to see you at Harter or Dueber Schools!
 
Please contact JA-In-A-Day chairperson Rick Taylor to volunteer: rtaylor@jaonline.org or 330-575-2870.
