Community Based Learning

The Community Based Learning Program is an experiential learning activity for juniors and seniors.  The goals of the program are to:

• provide students with first-hand experience in an identified work place;
• develop in students a sense of responsibility and confidence; and
• allow students to explore careers of interest at this time. 

Career interests could be in the professions, in the arts, in commerce, or in public service. Students are assigned a split schedule. Part of the day is spent in the classroom on academics and part of the day is spent in the community at an on-site learning station; the amount of time in each setting is determined by the needs of the individual student. Coordination and transportation is the responsibility of the student and family.
