Work Experience

This one-semester course is designed to provide students with an exploratory work experience which will introduce them to the world of work. This opportunity will help students bridge the gap between school and work. Students must have a paying job and will receive high school credit for completion of a minimum of 270 hours of work. Hours must be accrued by the projected completion date and kept on file at the school. This course is intended for Alternative Education Program schools and outlying schools. It is also available for students with an appropriate Individualized Education Plan (IEP). It may be used on a limited basis in comprehensive high schools for students with extenuating circumstances. This course will fulfill one-half of one of the elective credits required for high school graduation and may be repeated for one additional semester. This course is offered only to full-time juniors and seniors.
