City Schools Kicks-Off its First Official Youth Apprenticeship with Forest Park High School and Efficiency Enterprises
City Schools Kicks-Off its First Official Youth Apprenticeship with Forest Park High School and Efficiency Enterprises
Jeremiah Foote, an automotive Career and Technical Education (CTE) senior at Forest Park high school, is getting paid during the school day to perfect his craft and skills in diesel mechanics. How is this possible—Jeremiah is the first City Schools’ student to begin as a youth apprentice with City Schools’ first youth apprenticeship site, Efficiency Enterprises!!
This youth apprenticeship, earn-while-you-learn model, is through the state of Maryland’s youth apprenticeship program, Apprenticeship Maryland. By 2030, 45% of City School seniors will either need to complete a youth apprenticeship program or earn an industry certification to meet the new college and career standards as outlined in the Maryland Blueprint. The field of diesel mechanics is a great starting point as the industry is in high demand for talent like Jeremiah and provides career pathways at family-sustaining wages.

Students in Mr. McDevitt’s Carpentry pathway at Carver Vocational-Technical High School are building four little libraries and food-sharing boxes for Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Psi Phi Omega Chapter serving East Baltimore. The boxes will be strategically placed in high-impact neighborhoods throughout East Baltimore.
We are so excited that students are able to apply the skills learned in the classroom to support the community! We are equally excited to see non-traditional carpentry students working on this project as Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, is the first black female sorority!
