Work Based Learning
WHAT IS WBL?
The WBL Program allows students to make valuable career decisions through work based learning in their field of study or interest. The program allows you to participate in order to gain experience that can be valuable for college admission or career advancement.
CRITERIA:
Students must display good attendance, citizenship and academics in addition to providing career technical teacher recommendation to participate once all required curriculum and certification requirements have been met. All graduation requirements must also be met which will be reviewed by your guidance counselor.
WHEN CAN I START?
Most students start 2nd semester of their senior year 4th period but we can allow for flexibility depending on individual schedules. If you have non mandatory electives and meet all graduation requirements, you may be able to start sooner. The WBL elective replaces the student’s CTE Program Class. A student can also participate in WBL and remain in the CTE Program. Each application and case is handled individually but we try to allow for flexibility in supporting the best interest of the student.
