Program Overview
This program is incorporated into the structure of the existing public school. Program highlights:
- Academics are focused on their application to the work world.
- Curriculum is accredited by one of the regionally accepted credentialing groups (such as SACS).
- Students apply their learning in an actual job setting by structuring the school year to consist of half-time academics necessary for the requirements of School District graduation, and half-time work experience, either in a paid job with community employers, or a work experience with the public sector.
- Classes are small, because only half of the students are on campus at any single time.
- Typical program serves 200 – 240 students.
