Dawson County High School partnered with volunteers from Junior Achievement last week to bring a personal finance program to senior students. The goal of Junior Achievement of Georgia is to inspire and prepare young people to succeed in a global economy. Stacy Martin, Career Technical and Agricultural Education (CTAE) director at DCHS and Dianne Mayfield who is in charge of work based learning met with Lee Highsmith of Junior Achievement a year ago to discuss the programs that Junior Achievement conducts across North Georgia.
