Cooperative Education Program. The capstone cooperative education program combines a career & technical education program with supervised employment, so as to assist students in achieving their career goals. Students are able to enhance their in-school training by participating in experiences outside of the school setting, namely, in a job that is directly related to their field of study. A student who is placed on the cooperative education program is available to work during the time they would normally attend the Tech Center. The student is required to attend their sending high school for the other half-day, for their required academic subjects. To be eligible for the co-op program, seniors must have completed the first month of their senior year with satisfactory achievement and have the recommendation of their instructor. The instructor is the person most knowledgeable about the student’s attitude, career goals and skill competencies. Exceptional junior students will be permitted to participate in the program during the final nine weeks-grading period. Recommended junior Marketing Education students may be eligible during the Christmas season. One of the primary goals of the cooperative education program is to provide graduating students with actual work experiences. This, combined with the necessary skills, work habits, safety procedures and work attitudes learned in the classroom, should adequately prepare a student for the world of work. The cooperative education program is an important and critical component of career & technical education.
