Hello Summerwood Families!
My name is Emma Brawn and I'm the Junior Achievement coordinator for SWE. JA is a program where parent volunteers go into their child's class and teach 5 30-45 minute lessons on financial literacy, entrepreneurship and work readiness. The kids really enjoy the hands-on lessons and this is one of the best ways to get into your child's class and get to know their teacher and peers.
I am looking for one volunteer per homeroom class. You will need to complete a short, online training, make sure you are registered as a volunteer with Humble ISD and then coordinate with the classroom teacher to find time to teach the lessons. Most of our volunteers will teach one lesson a week. JA supplies all the necessary materials, scripted lessons and online resources to be successful in the classroom, even if you have no teaching experience! I usually spend about 15 minute the night before reading through the lesson and sorting the materials needed. The classroom teachers will stay with you to help manage the class and provide support as needed.
Use the Signup Genius below to select your child's class and I will follow up with details on the training and deliver your supplies. Any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
