2423 - SCHOOL-TO-WORK PROGRAM
The School Board strongly supports the School-to-Work Opportunities Act as a vehicle to help the Corporation prepare students more effectively for the world of work. Through this legislation, the Corporation will be able to provide students with the following learning experiences needed to develop career-related knowledge, attitudes, and skills as well as life-long learning skills:
| A. | School-Based Learning which includes career awareness, exploration, and counseling and the integration of academic and vocational learning. | |
| B. | Work-Based Learning which provides students with a planned program of job training and/or various types of work experiences that are coordinated with school-based learning. | |
| C. | Connecting Activities which are designed to ensure that there is effective correlation and coordination between what students learn in school and what they learn at worksites. |
The Superintendent is authorized to design and implement school-to-work activities and programs, both independently for this Corporation and in cooperation with other Corporations, that create the three (3) types of learnings described above. In addition, s/he should take the steps necessary to implement Board Policy 9555 - Partnerships with Business and also ensure that the Corporation is participating actively in alliances, consortia, and/or committees that are coordinating school-to-work initiatives in this area.
