Attendance:  Ruffin, Comstock, Grincius, Lyons (sub), Roy, Winter

Setting up Advisory Meeting with Business guest (realtor).  Need a parent representative.   Find a date that doesn't conflict with senior defenses and other field trips.

Several companies reached out to set up apprentice management tracks (Taco Bell, McDonalds, Kroger) to hire our students.  This will correlate with our leadership class (Marketing and Business Principals - Ethical Leadership).  This will ensure the students are career ready if they work throughout the year and are training for management.   Transitioning them into management is good for the company, the student and the school.

This is very exciting information!!!  It also gives students more options for co-op.

Companies will need to be helped with the paperwork and they will need to choose 4 courses to support their apprenticeship track.

Courses need to be performance based in order to make the courses 1 credit per semester.  This would expedite their course completions. Each company needs to determine their 4 courses.  See Danny Clemens for helping with this paperwork for making the courses 1 credit per semester.

Students could be in the admin pathway and still be eligible for a track program.

We still have the Jefferson County apprenticeship.

See Marla for more information about track courses.

Students can also take the Dual Credit through JCTC for Financial Literacy,  Marketing and Business Essentials.  Paid for by Fee Waiver as needed.

End of programs assessment is happening TODAY!  Last year 9 students took this assessment.  This year 61 students are testing.  Fantastic news.
