Work Experience

Work Experience provides opportunities for senior high school students to apply their knowledge, skills, and attitudes in the workplace. 

These courses also provide opportunities for the school and community to combine resources to further students’ career development and build their employability skills. Through work experience, students may discover their occupational interests and aptitudes in meaningful work-integrated learning activities. 

  • students must be 15 years of age or older
  • students must complete HCS3000: Workplace Safety Systems prior to enrolling in Work Experience
  • cooperative supervision by a certificated teacher and the employer’s onsite representative (usually the onsite supervisor) 
  • 25 hours per credit (minimum of 3 credits, maximum of 30 credits)
  • may involve volunteer activities, paid employment, or both
  • students require a course learning plan for each level (15, 25, or 35) with measurable goals and outcomes

Contact your high school for more information about Work Experience for students.

School Notice

Attention Bus Pass Riders!

We want to ensure all students have a safe and smooth transportation experience. Please review the following important information regarding bus passes:
1. Bus Pass Required for Riding
If your student has a bus pass in hand, they are eligible to ride the bus to and from school.
2. No Bus Pass, No Ride Home
If your student does NOT have a bus pass in hand, First Student will NOT be able to provide them a ride home. Due to significant changes in bus routes this year, there is a high likelihood that students without a pass could end up on the wrong bus.
We understand that the timing of this message may be challenging. Please know that we are sharing this information as quickly as possible to keep everyone informed and safe.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
