Pella Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on May 29.
Congratulations to the Career Academy of Pella and the 13 high school students who virtually signed to participate in a new and expanding work-based educational program in Marion County.
Students were paired with area businesses to enjoy paid employment while earning post-secondary credit for the training to apply toward a degree.
“This is a collaboration that is positively changing young lives, now and in the future, providing career pathways to in-demand fields right here in Iowa,” says Teri Vos, director of the work-based learning program. “Thank you to the high school students, employers and all partners creating these valuable experiences.”
