Mission Statement: To engage, support, and empower students by providing active, career-based learning in an experiential environment.
Among the checks that you approve tonight is one for 50% of our paint booth. We presented the reserve grant to you back in January. We are moving forward with the purchase of the paint booth.
We met with Job Ready 360 today to look at ways to harness the work based learning hours all of our high school students from CTE district 37 will be recording. Our goal is to provide an app that each high school student can access so that we can report the hours accurately to the State.
Also, the high schools are interested in knowing what embedded work based learning hours are included in out CTE programs that we can agree on to include and report. As our new diploma becomes a reality over the next few years we want to provide support in the work based learning area as much as possible. I am hopeful the State will provide guidance, but if not, we will assign hours for each program.
We inducted approximately 80 students in the national technical honors society last night. It was a very nice ceremony.
