The YES!  program is a half day program held at the middle school. It consists of a series of four activities intended to help students gain an appreciation for the importance that financial and career decisions will play in their lives as young adults.

The program is coordinated by Junior Achievement and involves volunteers who work with the students during the morning. Each volunteer is able to share their background with the students as the day proceeds.
