Adair County Schools Work Ready Seal Program BACK TO SCHOOL 2015: "The Adair County School System is the fuel for the Adair County Economic Engine," - ALAN W. REED From July 2015 Chamber Insights Click on headline for complete story By Robin Loy kid•FRIENDLy College and Career Readiness Counselor- Race to the Top-District, Green River Regional Educational Cooperative (GRREC), Adair County Schools Adair County Schools embraces the responsibility to prepare learners who are life ready. We have initiated meaningful conversations between educators and business and industry leaders on ways to elevate the importance of the Work Ethic Seal in the hiring process and we welcome more voices to the conversation. Adair County is currently in the process of renewing the Work Ready Community in Progress status and the Work Ethic Seal is an essential component required to receive a Work Ready Community designation. The seal benefits qualifying applicants and employers alike. It shows that an applicant is reliable, confident, and engaged in the community. As a result, employers can be confident that they are receiving a quality applicant for a job. Validating the "worth" of the Work Ethics Seal is a goal that the Adair County High School College and Career Readiness Center and the Chamber of Commerce has set for the upcoming year. Growing participation in the program by students at ACHS and increasing awareness and knowledge of the Work Ethic Seal in the community, so that it is becomes a relevant and meaningful program, is essential to creating a quality and sustainable program. We need employers to expect students to pursue the Work Ethic Seal and we need students who can articulate the work ready skills they possess as represented by the seal. All involved must be knowledgeable and committed to elevate the Work Ethic Seal to a highly desirable and noteworthy credential. A key part of the program is that it is voluntary and the pursuit of the seal is entirely the student’s responsibility. Students will be given the opportunity to apply for the program through mid-September. When school resumes, students will be able to gather information about the program and ask any questions they may have. The College and Career Readiness Counselor will oversee the application process and gather supporting documentation from students who apply to the program. The criteria to receive the Work Ethic Seal is as follows:
This is the first of a 3-part series on the Work Ethic Seal.Next month, LeAnna Bennett, Assistant Program Director for Adult Education, will discuss how adults in our community can earn the Work Ethics Seal and how her program is looking to connect adults who are furthering their education and skills with employers.
