Welcome to iJAG

One program in Iowa high schools is successfully graduating students and preparing them to enter the workforce. We’re iJAG – Iowa Jobs for America’s Graduates – and we’re one of the most cost-effective dropout prevention and school-to-career solutions in Iowa.

Students in the iJAG prorgam have trouble making it in a conventional classroom because of the distractions and barriers at home, outside the classroom or even inside the classroom. Relying on real-world, project-based instructional methods and an unconventional approach to personal connections with students, the iJAG teaching specialists work within conventional learning environments to help remove barriers and show students how to achieve the next step of their career or education.
