Biztown Interviews


For weeks, our class has been prepping for the much-anticipated trip to JA BizTown happening this Friday, March 6th. “JA BizTown is a program to help young people understand work readiness, entrepreneurship, and personal financial literacy”(BizTown Guide).  Students have been working through daily lessons to learn about the circular flow of economy, balancing checkbooks, savings and checking accounts, and how to apply for their first job.  Over the course of the past few weeks, the students completed a job application and applied to the businesses our class has been assigned.  Students went on mock interviews with staff from various grade levels in our school.  Between Mr. Catania, myself, and the notes from the teachers who interviewed our students, we were successfully able to place all of our students into their best role at one of the businesses.  We are extremely proud of the hard work that our students have been putting forward thus far, and we hope they will work just as hard on the trip this Friday.  Enjoy some pictures of our students who came in their business attire for their interview.
