School Works!
Program
Policies and Guidelines
1. The primary purpose of School Works!
is to initiate and nurture partnerships and relationships
of mutual benefit between businesses and schools, and to help
the partnerships become self-sustaining when possible and
practical.
2. The intended role of the School Works!
organization is to arrange or facilitate programs and locate
resources that respond to the expressed requests and needs
of its partners.
3. School Works! will arrange or facilitate
only those partnerships which do not conflict with the ethos
or legal standards of its members. Similarly, School Works!
will not work with organizations whose purposes or products
are in said conflict.
4. School Works! will not arrange student
training programs that, in effect, constitute the use of students
in business for free labor. Work site student training programs
are limited to those that provide meaningful learning experiences,
involve trainers or instructors from the business, and do
not include activities that the company would normally pay
someone to do.
5. Programs and services provided by School
Works! will be determined by available staff and resources.
6. The Board of Directors has the final
approval of all partnerships and reserves the right to refuse
partnerships.
