SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds that--
            (1) three-fourths of all high school students in the United 
        States enter the workforce without baccalaureate degrees, and 
        many do not possess the academic and entry-level occupational 
        skills necessary to succeed in the changing workplace;
            (2) a substantial number of youths in the United States, 
        especially disadvantaged students, students of diverse racial, 
        ethnic, and cultural backgrounds, and students with 
        disabilities, do not complete school;
            (3) unemployment among youths in the United States is 
        intolerably high, and earnings of high school graduates have 
        been falling relative to those individuals with more education;
            (4) the workplace in the United States is changing in 
        response to heightened international competition and new 
        technologies, and these forces, which are ultimately beneficial 
        to the Nation, are shrinking the demand for and undermining the 
        earning power of unskilled labor;
            (5) the United States lacks a comprehensive and coherent 
        system to help its youths acquire knowledge, skills, abilities, 
        and information about and access to the labor market necessary 
        to make an effective transition from school to career-oriented 
        work or to further education and training;
            (6) students in the United States can achieve high academic 
        and occupational standards, and many learn better and retain 
        more when they learn in context, rather than in the abstract;
            (7) while many students in the United States have part-time 
        jobs, there is infrequent linkage between those work 
        experiences and either the student's career planning or 
        exploration, or with school-based learning;
            (8) work-based learning, which is modeled after the time-
        honored apprenticeship concept, integrates theoretical 
        instruction with structured on-the-job training, and this 
        approach, combined with school-based learning, can be very 
        effective in engaging student interest, enhancing skill 
        acquisition, developing positive work attitudes, and preparing 
        youths for high-skill, high-wage careers;
            (9) Federal resources currently fund a series of 
        categorical, work-related education and training programs, many 
        of which serve disadvantaged youths, that are not administered 
        in a coordinated manner; and
            (10) in 1992 approximately 3,400,000 individuals in the 
        United States ages 16 through 24 had not completed high school 
        and were not currently enrolled in school, a number 
        representing approximately 11 percent of all individuals in 
        this age group, which indicates that these young persons are 
        particularly unprepared for the demands of a 21st century 
        workforce.

SEC. 3. PURPOSES AND CONGRESSIONAL INTENT.

    (a) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are to--
            (1) establish a national framework within which all States 
        can create statewide School-to-Work Opportunities systems that 
        are a part of comprehensive education reform, that are 
        integrated with the systems developed under the Goals 2000: 
        Educate America Act, and that offer opportunities for all 
        students to participate in a performance-based education and 
        training program that will enable them to earn portable 
        credentials, prepare them for a first job in a high-skill, 
        high-wage career, and increase their opportunities for further 
        education;
            (2) utilize workplaces as active learning components in the 
        educational process by making employers joint partners with 
        educators in providing opportunities for all students to 
        participate in high-quality, work-based learning experiences;
            (3) use Federal funds as venture capital, to underwrite the 
        initial costs of planning and establishing statewide School-to-
        Work Opportunities systems that will be maintained with other 
        Federal, State, and local resources;
            (4) promote the formation of partnerships that are 
        dedicated to linking the worlds of school and work among 
        secondary and postsecondary educational institutions, private 
        and public employers, organized labor, government, community-
        based organizations, parents, students, and local education and 
        training agencies;
            (5) promote the formation of partnerships between 
        elementary, middle, and secondary schools and local businesses 
        as an investment in future workplace productivity and 
        competitiveness;
            (6) help all students attain high academic and occupational 
        standards;
            (7) build on and advance a range of promising school-to-
        work programs, such as tech-prep education, career academies, 
        school-to-apprenticeship programs, cooperative education, youth 
        apprenticeship, business-education compacts, and promising 
        strategies that assist school dropouts that can be developed 
        into programs funded under this Act;
            (8) improve the knowledge and skills of youths by 
        integrating academic and occupational learning, integrating 
        school-based and work-based learning, and building effective 
        linkages between secondary and postsecondary education;
            (9) motivate all youths, including low-achieving youths, 
        school dropouts, and youths with disabilities to stay in or 
        return to school or a classroom setting and strive to succeed 
        by providing enriched learning experiences and assistance in 
        obtaining high skill, high wage employment and continuing their 
        education in secondary and postsecondary educational 
        institutions;
            (10) expose students to the vast array of career 
        opportunities and facilitate the selection of career majors 
        based on individual interests, goals, strengths, and abilities;
            (11) increase opportunities for minorities and women by 
        enabling individuals to prepare for careers which are not 
        traditional for their race or gender; and
            (12) further the National Education Goals set forth in 
        title I of the Goals 2000: Educate America Act.
    (b) Congressional Intent.--It is the intent of the Congress that 
the Secretary of Labor and the Secretary of Education jointly 
administer this Act in a flexible manner that--
            (1) promotes State and local discretion in establishing and 
        implementing School-to-Work Opportunities systems and programs; 
        and
            (2) contributes to reinventing government by building on 
        State and local capacity, eliminating duplication, supporting 
        locally established initiatives, requiring measurable goals for 
        performance, and offering flexibility in meeting these goals.
