On April 15, 2003 approximately 1/2 of the Class of 2005 loaded onto 4 school busses and headed out into Morris, Warren and Bergan Counties to "Shadow" individuals at their work sites. This activity served many purposes.
-It helped to demonstrate to the students the connection between academics and careers, making classwork more relevant.
- Students were exposed to the types of skills and activities required in different types of work. The process of building the program
-The process of developing the program strengthened community partnerships between schools and businesses to enhance the educaitonal experperiences of all students
-Exposed students to their caring community, encouraging ongoing relationships between young people and caring adults
Overall this was an incredibly positive experience for all involved.
