What does a Elementary Whole School Partnership entail?

A Whole School Partnership is special because it allows your company to provide the funding and the volunteers to adopt an elementary school for a JA in a Day. Every student at your chosen school benefits from JA’s programs and your company’s employees have the opportunity to volunteer. JA works directly with you to determine a partner school and helps you recruit volunteers from your firm (if you desire). Although volunteering is optional, the benefits to your employees and the students they teach are priceless.

Funding covers the cost of the materials, training, servicing, and recruitment of volunteers. Smaller organizations can also become involved by providing several volunteers and partnering with another firm to reach an entire school.
