COMMUNITY BASED WORK PROGRAM (Grade 12)
(SPE6920, SPE6921)
The Community Based Work Program (CPWP) experience is a school-to-work transition program with the intent of providing students paid/on-the-job training as determined by a student's IEP. Placements are considered an extension of the classroom and comply directly with Pennsylvania Child Labor Laws. CBWP students are assigned to the PW Transition Coordinator who will oversee the experience, conduct visits and communicate with the receiving organization; student progress is monitored and evaluated by the school liaison and employer on a continual basis. Duration in the field will depend on credits earned through grade 12, and be determined by building administration. Students are responsible to acquire approved placement prior to enrollment or visit the Career Center during Bonus Block for assistance.
