Research shows that the greatest predictor of student achievement is not economic or social status, but rather the extent to which parents become involved in their children's education.  Kids believe they can be whatever they want when they grow up.  No matter what your profession, your life experience and determination to succeed means you can serve as a role model - not just to your child - but to their peers too. As a JA classroom volunteer, you can give your child and their classmates the opportunity to discover how their talent and abilities can create a better life for themselves.  After all, preparing children for the economic reality of tomorrow is a responsibility everyone in the community shares. To learn if JA is in your child's school and for information on how to volunteer for your child, contact the JA of Georgia office nearest you or see Volunteer Tools.
