Program Goal: The goal of the CWTP and all services provided is community work exploration and competitive integrated employment prior to exiting high school.
How are students referred?
The student’s Admissions and Release Committee (ARC) makes referrals for transition services.
Referrals should typically be made at the ARC meeting held prior to the student turning age 14 or moving to high school from middle school.
Students/Parents need to complete the proper documentation to begin receiving services from the Employment Specialist.
Ask yourself: Does the student have time in their schedule to leave school (spend time with the Employment Specialist)?
Pre-Employment Transition Services: for Freshman and Sophomores who want to go straight to employment after high school.
Transition Services: For Juniors, Seniors, and Grade 14 (up to 21 years of age) once they have been determined eligible for services from OVR (Office of Vocational Rehabilitation).
