The students had full control of the creation of the publication with the support and advisement of Journal staff members. It is a shining example of the partnership of professionals sharing their knowledge and expertise with students and provide a very memorable experience. Over 200 volunteers shared their time and experience with over 6,000 students in classrooms throughout Forsyth and Davidson County during the 1999-2000 academic year. Through the efforts of the volunteers, the heart of Junior Achievement, these students learned valuable lessons on economics, business and free enterprise that will have a positive impact as they prepare to become tomorrow's workforce and consumers. Many businesses, organizations and individuals are aware of the value Junior Achievement has for the future and support these volunteers through financial contributions that purchase the materials used in the classroom.
