Dear Cooperstown Merchants,
I hope this message finds you well. As we plan for the upcoming 2024-25 school year, we are reaching out to request your continued support and participation in our work-based learning program. Your partnership has been invaluable in providing our students with real-world experience and skills that complement their academic learning.
We would be grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with your business once again, offering our students the chance to learn and grow under your guidance. Thank you for considering this request and for your ongoing commitment to the development of our students.
For businesses who hosted a Cooperative Work Experience in the past, students will be reaching out during the first week of school to request placements. If you are a business new to our Cooperative Work Experience program and are interested in hosting a student during the upcoming school year, please contact Jay Grover at Griggs County Central School to discuss opportunities! We plan to have all students enrolled in our CWE classes placed with an area business by August 26th.
