Today we welcomed Carol Ann DeMarco’s 2nd grade class from Mechanicville Elementary School to our offices this morning. The class was on a field trip to Mechanicville to visit various businesses in the Community. They came to the Connors Agency to learn more about the concept of insurance and business in general. Patrick Culligan recently completed teaching a business class to the students for 5 weeks as a volunteer for Junior Achievement. Junior Achievement is dedicated to bringing the real world to students and opening their minds to their potential. We would like to thank Carol Ann and the Mechanicville Elementary School for the opportunity to continue to help educate the class!

We'd like to give a special shout out to our very own Patrick Culligan who recently completed his 20th year as a volunteer teacher for Junior Achievement of Northeastern New York. He taught a business class to Carol Ann DeMarco’s 2nd grade class at Mechanicville Elementary School for 5 weeks for 1 hour per week. Junior Achievement is dedicated to educating students about issues relating to work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy through the use of experiential, hands-on programs. In partnership with the business and education communities, and through the support of community volunteers, JA brings the real world to students, opening their minds to their potential. Pat would like to thank Carol Ann and the Mechanicville Elementary School for the opportunity to help educate the class. 

Go Pat!
