2421 - CAREER EDUCATION PROGRAM
The Board of Education recognizes that not all students wish to stay involved in formal education beyond high school and must, therefore, be prepared to enter the labor force as productive workers.
For purposes of this policy, "career education" shall be defined as a program designed to provide educational experiences and guidance for students to plan and prepare for a future:
| A. | in the labor market as employable individuals immediately after graduation with productive, saleable skills; | |
| B. | in education beyond high school with the opportunity to gain a marketable job skill(s) that will assist them in achieving career goals; | |
| C. | in the world of work while continuing their education in order to help offset higher education expenses. |
The Board shall provide a career education program which shall include:
| A. | Technological Education; | |
| B. | Science Education; | |
| C. | Family/Consumer Education; | |
| D. | Business and Marketing Education; | |
| E. | Agri-Science Education. |
The vocational education program may also include a work-study program involving the employment of qualified students.
It is the policy of the Hartford Union High School District that no person shall, on the basis of age, gender, race, religion, ancestry, creed, sexual orientation, national origin, pregnancy, marital or parental status, or physical, learning, mental, or emotional disability or handicap, be excluded from participation in, have their rights be abridged or impaired, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program, activity or employment.
Concerns regarding alleged violations of this policy shall be referred to the Coordinator of Discrimination Complaints.
