School to Work

We have an opportunity during the school day to work at local businesses. They are able to get credits by doing this. Instead of going to school all day, the students are able to pursue in a career that will help them prepare for the future. Is something like this offered at your school? I am in the school to work program, but I am only gone from the school day first hour. I run a school newspaper called the Trucker Times through our local newspaper. It's a demanding job, but it helps keep me on track with getting things done.
