The Boston Public Schools Division of Student Support approaches youth employment as a core student success strategy not a standalone workforce program. Our model is embedded within schools and aligned with academics attendance re-engagement and wellness allowing us to identify and support students through trusted relationships with educators counselors and families. We prioritize high touch relationship driven supports and remove barriers to participation by centering equity access and student realities. Employment is treated as an extension of learning and development particularly for students who have been historically underserved disconnected or excluded from traditional employment pathways.
