Work Based Learning Starts Now!

All Level II Applied Mechanical Engineering, HVAC/R, and Plumbing and Pipefitting students qualify for this opportunity.

Mr. Muly, Mr. Eugenio, and Mr. Portaleos have been visiting all shared time buildings to discuss opportunities for work based learning (WBL). In WBL students have the opportunity to work in their designated trade up to 4 days a week. An added benefit is that this is a PAID experience! The WBL program offers invaluable hands-on experience for students, especially when they can earn while they learn.

This kind of practical exposure, combined with classroom learning, prepares students for real-world careers in a meaningful way.

By predicting game outcomes, students dive into real-world applications of math. They are calculating probabilities, working with fractions and ratios, and analyzing statistics. This fun, hands-on activity enhances their understanding of key concepts like averages and percentages while keeping them engaged. Mr. Howie's innovative approach is making math both relevant and exciting for his students!
