Career Development

Student Life MS: Career Development Lead in

Every student deserves to see how their education prepares them for life beyond middle school. Whether they plan to attend college, start a career, or explore both paths, students thrive when they understand the real-world value of what they’re learning.

Student Life MS: Career Development Description

School-to-Career

School-to-Career (STC) is an initiative and a philosophy. It is a method of delivering the curriculum to our students that links classroom knowledge to real-world applications.  Students learn better when information is made relevant, and STC ensures this by linking schoolwork to workplace realities.   School-to-Career links the world of school to the world of work by supporting school-based activities such as classroom speakers, mentors, soft-skills presentations, and real-world activities and by infusing these into the Common Core through collaboration between members of the business community and classroom teachers.    

Career Development Coordinator

The Career Development Coordinator provides a number of career-related experiences for students, including:

  • Job Shadow Opportunities
  • Guest Speakers
  • Field Trips
  • Interest Inventories
  • Career Fairs
  • Tutors/Mentors
  • Service Learning Opportunities       

Business Alliance

A business alliance is a collaboration among business, community, and school leaders committed to educating every student to become a responsible, productive citizen who can effectively manage future challenges. Through the support, dedication, and commitment of our volunteers, we provide a range of opportunities for our students to develop the skills needed to succeed in their future careers.

Community Connections
 

While Apex Middle School does not have a formal Business Alliance program at the middle school level, we work closely with a variety of community partners to help expose students to career pathways and technical opportunities. Through partnerships, guest speakers, career exploration activities, and school programs, students are provided opportunities to learn about future careers, develop workplace readiness skills, and explore areas of personal interest connected to Career and Technical Education (CTE).
