High schools are a critical partner in the success of the Early Childhood Apprenticeship program, helping bridge academic learning with meaningful, real-world career experiences. Your leadership and support ensure that students are prepared, supported, and able to thrive as they take on the responsibilities of an apprentice.
Here, you’ll find resources to support program planning, student eligibility, progress monitoring, and partnership coordination. These tools are designed to help you navigate expectations, maintain strong collaboration with early childhood employers, and ensure that students remain on track academically while gaining valuable hands-on experience.
Together, we can provide students with opportunities that connect classroom learning to future careers, building confidence, skills, and a clear pathway into the early childhood workforce.
