SHS students visit New York Stock Exchange

On Thursday, June 21, the winners from the Junior Achievement 2023 Stock Market Challenge visited the NY Stock Exchange in NYC. 

Team Money Maker$, made up of Marques Johnson and Omarion Pedragon from Schenectady High School, with their teacher Laurie Rasmussen and principal Dr. Ady Pina received a private tour. 

Students were hosted by TradeMas and had the opportunity to chat with the Founder & CEO of the company, Frank Masiello, about his inspiring career path and saw firsthand what really happens at the exchange. 

It was an amazing opportunity that included a chauffeured Mercedes van, the visit to the Stock Exchange, a three-course lunch and a visit to the 911 Memorial.
