Work Based Learning Opportunities

Job Shadowing

Students grades 5th thru 12th are welcome to explore Job Shadowing opportunities with school and parent approval.   

Job shadowing is an opportunity for students to follow and observe a professional for a short period of time, such as a day.

Job shadowing allows for students to have a better idea of what professionals do each day and whether or not they can see themselves following that career path. 

Finding a job shadowing opportunity in your future field may be easier than you think with the help of your school or personal connections!  Let your school counselor know if you are interested and how we can help YOU!
