Senior Job Shadow Requirement for Graduation

Deadline: Friday, April 24, 2026

As part of the Career Portfolio, the Senior Job Shadow is a required graduation activity for all Lakeville Area Schools seniors.

Students who are exempt from both the job shadow and the follow-up assignments (Post Job Shadow Assignment and Mock Interview Questionnaire):

  • Full-time PSEO students

  • Students who have taken and passed Career Investigations

  • CNA Students

Capstone Students are exempt from completing the job shadow but must still complete the Post Job Shadow Assignment.

A job shadow is a structured career exploration experience where a student observes an employee in their workplace to learn about a specific occupation or industry. The goal is to help students explore potential career paths and gain real-world insight into professional environments.

To make this experience meaningful, students should select a mentor who works in a career field of interest—not a parent or a current employer. Parents and current employers may be valuable resources for supplemental career exploration, but they should not serve as the primary job shadow placement.
