“When participating with the Faces of the Future Mentoring Program field trips it gave me a chance to see my students in a different light.  They were challenged in different ways that pushed them to not give up. I saw smiles!”

“The JA volunteers in my classroom this year were fantastic!  My students and I appreciate the great contributions each of them have made to my classroom this year. My students were always excited about their visits and learned so much about the "real world" from all of the volunteers... I am positive that these Junior Achievement experiences have been worthwhile and will have a lasting effect on my students as they progress through high school. Thank you so much Lori, OPBEA, and to all the great Junior Achievement volunteers. I hope to see you again next year.”
