JA Finance Park® Virtual helps students build a foundation upon which they can make intelligent financial decisions that last a lifetime, including decisions related to income, expenses, savings, credit and more. The program comprises several teacher-led, in-class lessons and culminates in a hands-on, online budgeting simulation that is supported by volunteers. The JA Finance Park® Virtual simulation offers two implementation options: “Entry Level” geared toward middle school and an “Advanced” version that is geared toward high school age students.
