🌟WORFORCE WEDNESDAY🌟

Work Based Learning is a program for senior students that is taught by Stephanie Studebaker. The curriculum she provides is based on the three E's - Education, Enlistment, and Employment. Students in her program attend their home school a half day and then are employed in business and industry the other half of the day. In the classroom portion of the program, numerous topics are covered such as compiling resumes, interviewing, taxes, establishing credit, insurance, and career exploration. The program also incorporates guest speakers, industry tours, and college visits.

Work Based Learning is based on the three E's, Education, Enlistment, and Employment. Work Based Learning is 1/2 day in a classroom and the other 1/2 in a real work setting. In the classroom students learn to do resumes, interviewing, taxes, establishing credit, and insurance. In the real work setting, they are doing what some adults do in their adult careers. They are being guided by people working in that career every day.

*Pictured is just a portion of our Work Based Students: Braydon Goodwin-INDOT, Owen Osterhoudt-Ace Hardware, Logan Mathis-Bloomingdale Home Telephone Company, Karter Vanderheyden-Elanco, Lydia Heck-Heck & Associates, Mackenzie Reath-Benjamins, Austin Fagg-Parke County Feeds, Kalonie Biszmaier-Lawn America, and Maddie Fisher-Benjamins.
