The
Literacy Program will define and implement a curriculum that parallels the
overall mission of CAREER. Literacy
is person-centered where students create, develop and manage their
educational and career interests. The
curriculum is designed to encourage students to learn independently, develop
critical thinking skills and to participate in group activities. Students will have access to
individualized instruction, computer assisted technology and vocational data
bases, while preparing for employment in the workplace or individuals
currently employed can maintain employment by continued studies.
The Literacy program
consists of three units:
- Career
Readiness
- Language Arts
- Math
Students
in the Literacy Program will prepare for Career Discovery with an outlook of
eventual employment. The program is
designed to accommodate individuals already in the workplace who wish to
further their educational abilities for the purpose of job advancement or to
take on additional responsibilities at work.
