What an incredible day at Dilworth Middle School!

Junior Achievement of Northern Nevada recently hosted a Career Speaker Panel, giving students the chance to hear real stories from professionals across a wide range of industries. From technology and construction to law enforcement, education, workforce development, and beyond, students got an inside look at what different career paths can look like and the many ways to get there.

Our amazing panelists didn’t just talk about their jobs; they shared honest stories about the twists, turns, challenges, and opportunities that helped shape their journeys. Students were engaged, curious, and asked some fantastic questions throughout the event!

A huge thank you to our panelists:
• Jacob Ross – Sparks Police Department
• Aimee Frugoli – Tesla
• Zach Braswell – Plenium Builders
• Kellie Jonas – ACE High School
• Connor Mix – Business Consultant
• Dash Laxmikanta – Microsoft
• Kimberly Jadidi – EmployNV
• Carolina Rocha Becerra – University of Nevada
• Michael Johnson – Nevada Vocational Rehabilitation

It was truly inspiring to see students connecting classroom learning to future possibilities and realizing there are so many exciting paths ahead of them. Experiences like these are what Junior Achievement is all about!

A special thank you to Behdad Atarzadeh, the incredible teacher at Dilworth Middle School, for helping make this event such a success. Your support, enthusiasm, and dedication to your students create opportunities that truly inspire and empower the next generation!

Proud to join Green Our Planet’s Student Farmers Market at the Legislature today alongside the Nevada Advisory Council for Financial Literacy. 🌱🍅📚

Local students confidently shared the products they’ve grown, the businesses they’ve built, and the lessons they’re learning through hands-on education. The creativity, professionalism, and enthusiasm these students brought to the Capitol was incredible.

A huge thank you to the educators and program leaders who are helping prepare the next generation with real-world skills in entrepreneurship, sustainability, and financial literacy. Nevada’s future is bright!

🌟 Celebrating Our First High School Hero! 🌟

We are thrilled to spotlight Junior Achievement’s very first participant in our High School Heroes program—Evan Cooper! 👏

Evan went above and beyond by completing all five sessions of JA Ourselves, bringing financial literacy and important life lessons to the kindergarten students in Ms. Tinnin’s class at Hidden Valley Elementary School.

A special thank you to Ms. Tinnin for her continued dedication to creating meaningful opportunities for her students. Her commitment to bringing programs like Junior Achievement into the classroom helps inspire and empower young learners every day. 🍎

Together, they made an incredible impact—and Evan, you truly are our hero!! 💙
