At public high schools across New York City, students are getting the chance to Apprentice and gain career-ready work experience thanks to an educational program.  Imagine going to high school, then spending afternoons making money in an Apprenticeship at a place like JP Morgan Chase.  "They are leaving high school at (1 p.m.) Monday through Friday and getting paid ($15 to $25) an hour," Chelsea CTE High School Principal Jaivelle Reed said. "These are sixteen- and seventeen-year-olds making that kind of money."  High school students in this New York City public high school program then graduate and go right into these jobs, full time.
