Funding Description
This is annual funding for the currently operating California Partnership Academies (CPA) programs included in the State Budget. This annual funding is to support Green Technology Partnership Academies (GTPA) CPAs. GTPA provides the legislation to support the development and operation of the GTPA CPAs. The jobs and activities described are very specific and range from entry level to professional level. The intent is to help guide the Academy focus towards employment and career opportunities that are growing and critical to California's economy and environment. The CPA model, a school-within-a-school for students in the tenth through twelfth grades, establishes viable partnerships with either the business community or the public sector, or both. Emphasis is placed on student achievement, attendance, and program accountability.
