Washington American High School

Career Shadow Program

Through our career shadowing program, students spend time on the job shadowing
with an expert in their future field of study. As an observer, students will see how the
professional goes about his or her daily tasks.

We have established business partnerships in over 100 professions around the
World for our students to shadow with as an observer in their future field of study.
Washington American High School career shadowing program is designed to

provide an opportunity for 12th grade high school
students to visualize and experience a day in the
life of a career professional. It provides an
experience for on-the-job learning, career
development and leadership. It introduces
cooperative work ethics and proactive choices
while presenting a possible career path in public
service.

shadowing looks terrific on a college application.
The more experience and dedication a student
demonstrate in his or her field of interest, the
more attractive a candidate they are.

Student observers can also get started on
networking (and find college references),
especially if you know the career is right for you.
