District 88 invites local businesses/companies/organizations to participate in Heritage Spanish Career Fluency Program

Calling all local businesses/companies/organizations! District 88 offers a variety of options for you to collaborate and partner with the district to support students through work-based learning experiences.

One of those opportunities is the Heritage Spanish Career Fluency Program, where students would visit your facility twice a week for about four months (starting in January 2026) to shadow your employees. This minimal-commitment program helps students develop their skills in professional settings and introduces them to a range of careers, while enhancing their biliteracy. For more information, go to www.dupage88.net/HeritageSpanishProgram.
