Presenter:
Veronica Johannsen, Chief of Administration, Communications, and Security
Description:
This initiative aligns with our district's commitment to fostering educational growth, community engagement, and strengthening workforce development. During the strategic planning process, GISD adopted a Mission statement that states the Gonzales Independent School District designs meaningful learning experiences that inspire students to make an impact beyond themselves. The program also aligns with three of our Belief Statements in our Strategic Plan. We believe when we are responsive to students needs, we increase the likelihood of their success. We believe productive citizens move society forward. We believe student success results from meaningful learning experiences.
Incorporating a student internship program within our Communications Department stands to benefit not only the participating students but also our schools and the larger community. It is a investment in both education and communication excellence, reinforcing our commitment to providing experiential learning opportunities. Additional information on the student internship program is included in your packet. We kindly request the board's approval to move forward with the approval of this program, at a rate of $7.25 an hour. |
