About Us
Exploration and Exposure
We work to provide that big picture moment that can pave the way for greater meaning and fulfillment on every student’s journey to discover their passion and purpose.
By offering exposure to and exploration of different careers, students begin asking and finding their own answers to the questions that make school relevant and exciting to their futures.
As a result of their experiences with School to Careers, our students become energized with focus.

How We Do It
School to Careers makes academic learning relevant by bringing private and public sector organizations together with student participants through:
- industry-specific seminars
- business site visits
- classroom speakers
- mentorships and internships
- shadow days
- Expert Q&A panels
Our participants meet real people who want to make a difference in their lives. Students open their minds to new interests, talents, and opportunities.
In response, they craft plans to achieve college and career goals that excite them, resulting in self-motivated and achieving students.
For our schools and students, we offer an opportunity for validation and exploration – participants meet real people who want to make a difference in their lives. Students open their minds to new interests, talents, and opportunities.
And over 25 years, our students have maintained these industry connections, and following their successful completion of college, have been hired by the same people who inspired them to set out on their unique path.
Partnership
For our business partners, we offer the opportunity to invest in their marketplace and future workforce by engaging young people in authentic conversations.
By supporting our programs, employees gain the opportunity to affect the future, reflect on their role in their company, and consider a global outlook on their own path towards crafting a sustainable life and career.
In the ultimate measure of success, our students have maintained these industry connections, and following the successful completion of their education, have been hired by the same people who inspired them to set out on their unique path.
