Hands-on learning today. Career opportunities tomorrow! ⚓
The Palm Beach North Education Foundation recently had the opportunity to visit Jupiter High School’s Marine Program alongside Alyssa Freeman, Executive Director of the Marine Industries Association of Palm Beach County, to see firsthand how students are gaining valuable skills and exploring career pathways in the marine industry.
Thanks to a grant from Boat Show Gives Back, the Foundation was able to help fund equipment for the school’s marine program in support of our externship initiative, connecting classroom learning with real-world workforce opportunities.
Programs like these demonstrate the importance of partnerships between education and industry, helping students develop practical skills while preparing them for careers in one of Palm Beach County’s important economic sectors.
A special thank you to Boat Show Gives Back for supporting this initiative and to Jupiter High School for welcoming us!
