Be a Mentor to Your Future Workforce

The Hart School District would like to partner with your business to broaden career awareness in our high school students. You have the opportunity to make a significant impact on students one-on-one and in groups. Would you share your time, expertise and knowledge to help prepare students for the workforce? We have six ongoing opportunities throughout the school year to get involved as much or as little as you choose. Your support will go a long way toward ensuring a strong future workforce in your industry.

Benefits to Business

  • Increase your visibility in the community. Be seen as a business that invests in schools.
  • You have access to future talent and can influence the future employment pool.
  • Make a difference in students' lives.

    Host student job shadows of one or more your employees for two hours to help students learn about a career field.
  2. Student Internships
