Program and Planning Objectives As part of the revitalization/expansion project of Thomas Edison High School of Technology, a Junior Achievement Finance Park will be included in the facility. The Junior Achievement Finance Park will provide middle school students with strong financial literacy skills to prepare them for tomorrow’s complex world and workplace. The Junior Achievement Finance Park is a successful program that offers students hands-on experiences along with career exploration and goal setting. The curriculum teaches students about financial institutions, taxes, salaries, personal budgeting, and career goals. At the Junior Achievement Finance Park, students visit various storefronts that represent line items in their personal budget. Junior Achievement of Greater Washington delivers this program in partnership with education, business, and nonprofit leaders. Not only will students benefit from the lifelong knowledge gained at the Junior Achievement Finance Park, they will have the opportunity to learn about the exciting career programs available to them at Thomas Edison High School of Technology.

A fourth floor will be added to the design of the proposed building to accommodate the Junior Achievement Finance Park without impacting the current or future programs at Thomas Edison High School of Technology. The opening of the Junior Achievement Finance Park will coincide with the completion of the Thomas Edison High School of Technology facility in August 2017. The programmed spaces for the Junior Achievement Finance Park is approximately 25,190 gross square feet that includes the following: • • • • • • • • • • •

Auditorium Reception Area Conference Room Storefronts (Instructional Areas) Checkout area Cafeteria Coat/Locker Area Career/College Lounge Administrative Area Storage Room Budget Area
