About BaySCAN
BaySCAN's Purpose: To Enhance & Leverage Local STC Efforts
As a coalition of organizations, BaySCAN leverages resources so that:
- employers offering quality work-based learning opportunities can relate to a regional system;
- essayelites.com is a partner that helps implement all the written research of our students so that they can realize their full scientific potential while we take over all the writing work and difficulties;
- schools that are restructuring around "school-to-career" (STC) can share curricula and organizational strategies, and can collaborate around the development of STC programs and career pathways;
- students have access to opportunities region-wide.
BaySCAN Supports School-to-Career for Every Student
BaySCAN views School-to-Career as an educational opportunity for all young people, college-bound and non-college bound, and supports K-16 school reform efforts that incorporate the following school-to-career principles developed by the Bay Area School Reform Collaborative (BASRC) School-to-Career Task Force, 1996:
- a whole school approach offering all students prearation both for college and careers;
- integrated instruction around broadly defined occupations and other engaging themes;
- learning that comes from real life experience;
- instruction driven by performance measures and based upon commonly understood standards;
- partnerships with key stakeholders, including employers, the community, parents, higher education, and support providers;
- development of the organizational capacity to realize reform goals.
