Work-Based Learning Program

The Work-Based Learning program is open to juniors and seniors.  The program provides students an opportunity to learn job-related skills through a related course taken during the morning and then allows students to leave school for 1 or 2 periods to work at an approved job.

School credit is earned and students are paid by the employers for their work. Students do not need a job to enter the program – they have the first 2 weeks of the semester to get an approved job.

To be Eligible:

Students must pass 6 out of 6 classes the semester before enrolling; have good attendance; no severe discipline issues and must have reliable transportation to and from work.  See Mrs. Spikes for an application.
