Business Partnership for Students 

Each year District 211 partners with local businesses to establish worksites for students with special needs. Through these partnerships, the District is able to provide the students with true to-life work experiences that help prepare the students for their lives after high school. Several of these businesses were present at the Board Meeting to receive recognition from the Board of Education.
