Business & Community Partnerships

Creating long-lasting partnerships in our community is mutually beneficial to both parties. As a partner, you are helping us reach this goal and building a stronger community.

Establishing a strong relationship with the business community and supporting our schools will help us achieve our vision: From school to world:  ALL students are prepared for productive futures.  Our mission is to lead students to their full potential through excellence in academics, arts, athletics, and service to the community.

There are numerous opportunities for your involvement, and tangible benefits for your business and our community including:  

  • It's good for your image and your corporate health.  It's a source of pride for your employees, and creates a lasting positive image.  It gives your employees an opportunity to become involved at a grass roots level and make a difference and can increase your competitive advantage.

  • You are helping create a prepared workforce. It is our vision that ALL students should graduate from high school ready for college, careers and life, prepared to pursue the future of their choice.  We want our students to be prepared for their post-secondary experience – whether it's enrollment in a college, employment, or enlistment in the service of our country. 

  • It's good for the Community.  When students achieve their goals in education, everyone benefits. Business involvement helps to show relevance to students. The students are more motivated to get an education and more aware of how it correlates to success. There is evidence that links business involvement with fewer dropout rates. And when students see the relevance for pursuing a career in a specific industry, they are motivated not only to stay in school but to do their best. This helps create growth within the community over the long-term.
​We look forward to welcoming you to the Business and Community Partnership.  Please let us know how we can help you!​​
