It was a wonderful 2015 at JA of Georgia. Here are a few of the things we accomplished with the help of our volunteers and sponsors:

• Launch of the JA-MBA, an immersive high school experience that meets traditional common core standards through experiential and interdisciplinary studies. The first freshman class at Banneker High School is made up of 130 students who want a more authentic high school experience; to leave with something greater than a diploma.

• Opened our second JA Discovery Center, bringing the impact of these centers to 60 % of middle school students state wide. The JA Discovery Center at Gwinnett will serve more than 25,000 middle school students a year, thanks to partnerships with over 100 companies and organizations in the Gwinnett community.

• Continued our JA High School Leaders program that will serve over 65,000 students this year.

• JA Fellows is back with driven students and great products.
