Opportunities
Career Shadowing
Career Shadowing is a job-related experience where students spend time observing a professional on the job.
During Career Shadowing, small groups of students in high school will observe observe professionals on the jobs and experience “a day in the life” of a business environment to gain a deeper knowledge about existing careers, career pathways and the essential skills needed for success in the workplace. Shadowing will occur during the school day at a local business.
Ambassador Program
Leading others requires reaching out into the community of peers. As a representative of the Student Ambassador Team, students will lead campaigns and projects that encourage and promote the unity with the school community, both for students and other stakeholders. Mentorships with educators and business leaders in the community provide the support and guidance to inspire and develop these projects through quarterly meetings.
