Monroe County School District recently issued the following announcement.
Monroe County School District high school students, currently at Key West High School and county wide in the future, will have the opportunity to participate in a new career internship program this school year, according to Superintendent Theresa Axford. Monroe Occupation and Vocational Experiences (MOVE) is a partnership between the MCSD and community businesses to provide career training for high school juniors and seniors in various fields.
The MOVE Corporate partners program matches community businesses with skilled junior and senior students who have an interest in gaining meaningful work experience in a career field. In addition to career training and exploration, students receive compensation for working off-site in local businesses. Corporate partners also gain from participation in the MOVE program. Benefits include attracting qualified, career-oriented applicants to fill areas of need, as well as the ability to train students before they officially enter the workforce, thus reducing the cost of training new employees and reducing employee turnover.
