WINC...Highlights of a Successful JACP

 

This page is dedicated to WINC, the Junior Achievement Company Program I sponsored for eight years while at Spring Woods High School.  Although the JA Curriculum has 12 Program Sessions (2 hour meetings) written into the curriculum, the members of WINC (and thus their sponsor), spent hundreds of hours each company year (September-April) developing the company's business and marketing plans for that year, hiring new employees, writing and administering the business plan, selling stock, communicating with stockholders, managing the business, manufacturing products, marketing, creating the booth for Trade Fair, volunteering in our community and at our school, preparing for competitions, etc.   This page will give you a glimpse into the company and my dedication to the students.
