Junior Achievement of Acadiana and Advancial Federal Credit Union are teaching students at Prairie Elementary School about business.

Today, the group hosted JA Day at the school for 750 students. JA Day is a financial literary program where students get a fun, intensive crash course on business and economic concepts.

This was the fourth year of the event that’s taught by volunteers.
