Your business can join others, civic organizations, and higher education institutions in providing relevant, realistic experiences that help students see the connection between academic success today and career success tomorrow. The Wake County School-to-Career program is supported by a volunteer council and aligned with our Career-Technical Education curriculum.
The SRMHS Business Alliance is a partnership between business leaders and educators. They meet monthly to plan, review and create events and opportunities that impact students and increase their college and career readiness. The Business Alliance members each bring a level of expertise that is vital to assist teachers in designing real-world experiences for students that equip them for their future. Some of the events the Business Alliance is involved with includes career fairs, mock job interviews, discussions about business ethics, onsite and offsite learning experiences, business site tours, internships and writing resumé. The Business Alliance meets on the 3rd Wednesday of each month except in the case of holidays, inclement weather, and track out days.

Our school district's Career Academies are smaller learning communities within a school that focus on a career area, integrate that theme within the core curriculum, and provide internships. Each academy has an advisory board comprised of volunteers from businesses and higher education related to that career theme.
