Tyler Legacy High School students made a positive impact on the community by visiting Bell Elementary School last Friday to teach Junior Achievement programs. These high school heroes are not only inspiring the younger generation but also gaining valuable teaching and leadership experience.
Tyler Legacy Dean of Instruction, Kala Morrow, excited about the opportunity, shared, "Junior Achievement is such a great learning experience, and I'm always impressed with how well our students prepare and teach!" This enthusiasm is shared by many who participate in this initiative.
Junior Achievement provides a platform for these high school students to impart essential life skills to their younger counterparts. The lessons vary from entrepreneurship to financial literacy and career readiness, allowing kids to grasp the importance of these principles in their lives and beyond. As one student explained, "The lessons allow kids to learn the impact of these principles on ourselves, our families, our communities, our city, our region, and our nation!"
High school students spending their day mentoring and supporting K-5 students not only foster a sense of community but also serve as role models. Their dedication to making a difference is a testament to the bright future that lies ahead for these students and their community. This partnership between Tyler Legacy High School and Bell Elementary School showcases the power of education to uplift and inspire the next generation.
