A program at Branson High School continues to help students get real time professional experiences.
More information below from a press release from the Branson School District:
Greater Ozark Centers for Advanced Professional Studies (GO CAPS) students from the Medical Strand and the Business and Entrepreneurship Strand had the opportunity to job shadow area businesses this semester. These job shadowing experiences provided valuable insights into the business and medical worlds, as well as connections with leaders in the community.
The Medicine students were able to visit Jordan Valley Community Health Center, Allphin Veterinary Clinic, and the Taney County Ambulance District, among others. Junior Serenity Lawrence says she was honored to job shadow at the Taney County Ambulance District. "I not only made major connections with the amazing employees there, but went along on calls to see the process of leaving the station to possibly save a life out on the scene."
Business and Entrepreneurship students have participated in job shadowing at the KRZK radio station, Robbin's Insurance Group, Foggy River Realty, and more. Senior Parker Foley enjoyed visiting the Robbin's Insurance Group. "They gave insight into how their company and business model operates, and how insurance works in general. This was an awesome experience thanks to CEO Blake Robbins, and his incredible team," says Foley.
