We are proud to announce that Jose Borrego Preparatory Academy is gearing up to compete in the Capitol Hill Challenge, where our students will participate in The Stock Market Game!
๐ The competition officially begins on January 26, 2026, and will run through May 1, 2026. Each student team will manage a simulated $100,000 portfolio (Stock Market Game money), making real-world investment decisions while learning the fundamentals of finance, investing, and the value of money.
Schools from across the nation will be competing for the incredible opportunity to travel to Washington, D.C., where winning teams will meet with congressional leaders and experience government and economics firsthand.
We are excited to see our students grow as financially literate, critical-thinking leaders as they rise to this challenge!

Jose Borrego Preparatory Academy proudly celebrates and thanks our dedicated School Guardians on National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day.
Our guardians play a vital role in keeping our campus safe and secure each and every day. Their presence, dedication, and commitment to our students and staff do not go unnoticed.
To show our gratitude, our students created a special handmade banner as a small token of appreciation for all that they do. ๐๐จ
Thank you to our School Guardians for your service, protection, and support of the JBPA family. We are truly grateful for you! ๐
