Welcome To The

Northeastern Wake Business Alliance

Schools and businesses in the Wake Forest area have joined together to help meet the needs of students and teachers.  The School-Business Alliance engages community resources (businesses, parents, and community organizations) to provide support and workplace realities for teachers and students at Wake Forest-Rolesville High School and Middle School, and Heritage Middle School.  Each school alliance is part of the Business Education Leadership Council.

A business member can expect a nominal time commitment of approximately 2-3 hours a month during the school year, either in monthly alliance meetings with key school personnel, or in direct participation in a career-based alliance activity such as:

Career fairs,Guest speaking, Practice job interviews, Dropout prevention, Graduation projects, Resume reviews,Business ethics discussions Site tours

In addition to direct participation, the networking ability of our business leaders allows the alliance initiative to tap an extensive resource of talented individuals to which students would not otherwise have access. Please click on the links below to learn more.

Northeastern Wake Alliance Brochure

“The education and skills that our citizens bring to the workplace are our most critical economic development issue.   Solving the problem will require multiple solutions, with everyone—education, government, business, parents and students—working together to build a first-rate workforce for North Carolina.”
                       -Cherie Berry, NC Commissioner of Labor
  
“I strongly believe that in order to address these issues it will take a focused partnership of the education system and the business community to provide a different orientation towards career development and advancement.”

“It would be helpful to incorporate more technical training and job knowledge for area employability.  Most high schoolers do not understand what is required beyond high school to meet the qualifications for certain jobs or what is available in their area.”
