    Program Focus

    The W.G. Sanders Career Magnet Program focuses on exposing students to the sixteen (16) career clusters and allowing them to explore and investigate career options within those career clusters. Students will then be able to study specific jobs and training for the Government, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), Hospitality and Tourism, and Business Management & Administration (Entrepreneurship) career clusters using Project-Based Learning. Students will also develop their leadership skills through the use of student voice, field studies, and curriculum development.
