School Improvement # 16 School to Work Options
Manage episode 346222498 series 3404234
This episode talks about the different types of work experiences a student can get in high school. For example; Work Experience - no credit usually 1 period per day for a senior in good standing and on track to graduate. Co-op is usually 2 periods or more a day and the student gets high school elective or CTE credit based on monitoring from the school. The student should have completed the high school pre-reg courses in the CTE area. Apprentice or Intern position are half the day or more where the student is getting not only work experience but licensing or endorsements for the career.
I highly recommend districts look at the ACT Workkeys program and have student take and complete Reading for Information, Applied Math and Locating Information. This is another area where special education is way ahead of the rest of the school. Every student should have a post secondary plan with an A and B option.
