Job Shadowing
Job shadowing is based on the belief that students who have more information about themselves, and the workplace will better understand their options and will more likely plan now for their futures. Job Shadowing involves a student following an employee, other than a parent, at a company location to learn about skills and knowledge necessary to be successful in that occupation. Job Shadowing can help a student explore a range of career objectives and select a career pathway.
Please visit with Dr. Cheeks if you are a Junior or Senior interested in Job Shadowing.
