About

BKAGF provides an environment where students are academically challenged and engage in learning through opportunities to interact on and off-site with partners in various business industries. Career experiences include work-based learning, field trips, job shadowing, paid internships to give students exposure to business management and entrepreneurship. Students have opportunities for early college courses, college visits, mentoring from college students. Our mission is to prepare students for post-secondary education and participation in the global economy through experiential and real-world learning that builds 21st Century skills, including collaboration, entrepreneurial thinking, cultural competence and sociopolitical consciousness. We are part of the Career Readiness and Modern Youth Apprenticeship (CRMYA) pilot, which helps us support career readiness for all our students. We have courses that help our ninth and tenth graders explore their career interests and develop readiness skills. Our students can apply for apprenticeships in tech, finance, and business, which allows them to earn and learn while in high school.
