Principal’s Message:
A unique component of the North Clackamas high school experience is the opportunity for every high school
student to explore career and technical courses at one of the three Sabin-Schellenberg campuses. Students gain
industry level knowledge and skills and apply them in authentic settings such as in our deli, cosmetology salon,
Early Learning Center pre-school, student store, or automotive shop. Working under the supervision of licensed
teachers experienced in their industry, students receive a personalized education that engages them in learning
as they explore their career and personal interests. All programs align their courses with those offered at local
colleges, allowing students to earn college credits while in high school. Additionally, juniors and seniors may
work in internships at local business sites, gaining real-life experience while earning college credit.
Description:
The North Campus was originally opened in 1967 as the Owen Sabin Occupational Skills Center, beginning the
North Clackamas School District’s forty-plus year commitment to career and technical education. Today, the
Center hosts 17 programs, and includes the Ben Schellenberg Technical Center known as the South Campus,
and the 14 acre Land Lab on Hubbard Road, adjacent to Clackamas High School. The Center enrolls over 3500
high school students annually in grades nine through twelve.

Course Prerequisites
Internships
Students wishing to move from level 1 to 2, level 2
to 3, or level 3 to 4 must demonstrate proficiency in
technical skills and an ability to follow safety guidelines.
Students wishing to move into Level 1 of Culinary Arts or
Electronics Technology must demonstrate proficiency in
technical skills and an ability to follow safety guidelines at
the introductory level.
Internships are for 11th and 12th grade students who
are placed at a school or community work site based on
the instructor’s recommendation. The internships are
for at least one grading quarter, but may vary based on
the work site needs and the student. Students sign an
agreement that lists expectations, and are required to
provide their own transportation to and from work sites.
Some internship sites require a criminal background
check, drug screen and/or immunizations prior to
placement.
Advancement into upper level courses is based on
demonstration of proficiency in identified technical skills
and application of industry-based safety and sanitation
protocols. Prerequisites listed in this catalog using a
course name for example: ”Prerequisites: Animal Science
1” require that the student must have demonstrated
proficiency in the technical skills, drawn from the Oregon
Skills Sets, that have been identified for that course by
industry advisors and SSC instructors.

PACE is a comprehensive high school diploma completion
program for pregnant and parenting students (male and
female between the ages of 13-20). PACE connects with a
variety of community resources including the Clackamas
County Department of Human Services, Healthy Start
and the Clackamas Technical Education Consortium
Youth Services to support students and their children.
These agencies and the counseling offices at the NCSD
high schools refer student parents to the program’s
coordinator. Students from other school districts may
enroll with permission from the home district.
While parents are taking classes, on-site care for babies
and toddlers, between six weeks and 36 months of age,
is available. Besides the academic classes in Language
Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies, PACE students take
classes on parenting and career development. Students
are eligible to enroll in SSC and home high school classes
to meet standard high school diploma requirements.
