Jobs for Grads
Jobs for Graduates is a course that explores career possibilities for the high school senior. The class assesses career interests and determines what educational and special skills are necessary to succeed in their career. We discuss what employers expect of employees and how to get ahead in the work force. We will learn budgeting and banking techniques to enable seniors to plan for after-graduation expenses. This class also includes the Career Association, a social and community service club which includes activities and field trips.
We will create a plan to find jobs after graduation and to fund college. We will have a chance to compete with other schools using job attainment skills learned throughout the course. We will target jobs both within and outside of this community that will provide good career possibilities after graduation. This course also includes the Career Association, a social and community service club which includes activities and field trips.
This is a 21 month program. The teacher will follow-up on each student once a month for one year after graduation. Each student must complete thirty competencies which take one year.
