Every April, students from area high schools participating in the Junior Achievement Titan program gather to compete against one another in the Annual JA Titan Competition hosted by Parker Hannifin. On April 24, the Hathaway Brown team of sophomores Emily Amjad, Christine Espinosa and Emily Spencer took third place out of the 23 Northeast Ohio teams that competed this year. 

In the Titan business simulation program, students act as CEOs and make decisions concerning price, production, research and development, capital investment, marketing and charitable giving for their companies. HB students have been using the technology through the Center for Business and Finance, which is overseen by Kevin Purpura.  

The HB girls' regional finish qualifies them to advance to the national competition, which will begin on Monday, April 29.
