Jobs For America's Graduates (JAG) empowers students to take the lead on planning projects centered on civic responsibility, leadership, social interaction, academic performance, and professionalism. JAG students collectively decide how projects, class assignments, and community engagement activities are carried out by electing a governing body, assigning leadership roles, then holding each other accountable. The purpose of the JAG-SD program is to provide participants with classroom and work-based learning experiences that result in developing skills needed to be successful in life, leading to a fulfilling career after graduation.
