Apprentice Learning offers career education programs for eighth-grade students in Boston Public Schools designed to teach essential work skills and habits and expose students to different careers and adults who are passionate about their professions, so that students can make a clear connection between success in school and a satisfying, productive work life. \\Under-resourced middle school students in Boston schools do not have access to adequate opportunities to learn workplace skills and develop mindsets that prepare them for success in their future education and careers. This puts them at risk of disengagement in high school and highly limited employment opportunities.\\Apprentice Learning teaches the knowledge, skills and abilities of positive work habits and builds career aspirations beginning in middle school by giving youth exposure to workplace culture and the practice of work.
