The Burlington School District believes a diverse and culturally proficient faculty and staff are pivotal to the creation of a strong learning environment free of inequities. Accordingly, the Burlington School District's goal is to provide every student with an educational experience enhanced by the professional contributions of culturally competent representatives of different races, ethnicity, gender, physical ability, age and sexual preference.
BHS Summer Transitions is a five week program that provides supplemental education and work-related service experiences. The program is designed for students who are transitioning from eighth grade into BHS who have been identified by middle school counselors as potentially having difficulty in adjusting to high school. The program works with students who are significantly at-risk for dropping out of school and not prepared for the workforce. The program helps to prepare students for the expectations and demands of high school courses and job related experiences.
The BHS Summer Transitions program is seeking experienced and energetic support staff to support students in their morning academic activities and during the afternoon while students engage in occupational skills training (using school work and community service projects) and work readiness skills training, which is incorporated in the day to day activities (with some training provided by community partners).
