Meet the future of our workforce!

10/16/2017

 
Picture
Together, the School District of Washington, Washington Area Chamber of Commerce, and Washington Economic Development department have been working on strategies to enhance a vital component of the area's business success - the workforce!

Next week, you have the opportunity to interact with and recruit the future workforce of Franklin County!
 
The School District of Washington has been working hard to bridge the gap between education and industry. Programs have been designed to train the workforce and keep them in our community.  A few examples are:
  • Implementation of new relevant programs at WHS and Four Rivers Career Center
  • Career exploratory curriculum at the middle school and elementary levels
  • For the third year, our educators are touring businesses and industries to better relate lessons/curriculum to community needs through our Pathways for Teachers
 
Please attend our Open House to see how the new Center for Advanced Professional Studies (CAPS) Global Business program is teaming with the existing Four Rivers Career Center and Project Lead The Way (PLTW)  programs to meet the economic needs of our community.
