Career Experience – Off Campus

Students may apply for off campus experiences during their sophomore year. Enrollment will be in their junior and senior years. Student selection is based on successful completion of prerequisites, good school attendance, and attitude. If students enter a two-year Career Experiences - Off Campus program, they are expected to complete both the junior and senior year. Credit in two years of English Language Arts and at least one year of Math is usually required before a student is considered for the two-year Career Experiences – Off Campus program.
