Congratulations to Troy High School students Jack Fraser and Joe Coonan in Mr. O’Keefe’s Business class, for winning 3rd place in this year’s JA Titan CEO Challenge!

We’d also like to their their JA Titan CEO Mentor, Megan Baker of Baker Public Relations.
JA Titan® is a simulation-based program in which high school students compete as CEOs in the phone industry. It provides a great experience for students interested in exploring what entrepreneurship is like today. With a focus on financial literacy and insights into the workforce, The JA Titan® National Virtual Competition brings business economics to life. As students work in teams, to make financial decisions about production, marketing, research and development (R&D), and corporate social responsibility (CSR), they begin to see how every choice made in an organization relates to its future success.
