This year was the first year that I participated in Junior Achievement as a business educator.   My brother and I both received a plaque for our efforts.   I only have a picture of my brother receiving his plaque because I was on vacation and could not attend the ceremony. 

Junior Achievement is a worldwide partnership between the business community, educators and volunteers — all working together to inspire young people to dream big and reach their potential.  Junior Achievement’s hands-on, experiential programs teach the key concepts of work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy to young people all over the world. 

My brother Rick Kennedy (high school business teacher for E.C. Glass high school) and I teamed up this year.  This was his fourth year doing this and my first.  Below is the article from the Lynchburg City School website about this year’s results.
