Success Starts Here
Since 1969 JA Nova Scotia has educated and empowered students to make thoughtful financial health, work readiness and entrepreneurial decisions. Our programs are offered to teachers and students at no cost and provides in-school and extra-curricular hands-on experiential programming for youth, starting as early as grade 3 and continuing until grade 12. These programs help set them up with real-world scenarios and experiences to encourage them to create their successful future.
Our programs build on and enhance the current curriculum students receive at school, with additional focus and clarity on comprehensive planning for a successful future. We prompt youth to be proactive, get comfortable with things that are unfamiliar and develop autonomy, self-belief and confidence.
NEW: At JA Nova Scotia, we believe that recognizing and respecting the many identities, traditions, and experiences that shape our communities is an important part of building belonging. In that spirit, we have built a Diversity Calendar to acknowledge religious observances, cultural celebrations, and meaningful dates across Nova Scotia. While we have made every effort to ensure it is thoughtful and representative, we know there may be dates or celebrations we have missed. We welcome feedback from our community and encourage you to share any additions or updates with us.
