SJCC grads finding success in the workplace Student Life Becoming a Success Story Springdale JCC is about finding a new career, new friends, a new future. It's about pride, confidence, and living out dreams. We work with students to make it possible by providing basic needs such as room and board, transportation, clothing, and basic health and medical services that include basic dental and eye care. Students earn a modest living allowance which is paid every two weeks and receive a transition allowance upon completion of the program. And, students earn bonus pay for good performance as well as vocational and educational achievements. Living at Springdale We offer a safe, supportive community where students live in a residence hall located on our beautiful campus just 18 miles east of Portland. You'll share a room with three other students and share responsibility for your living area with the guidance of a Residential Advisor. The residence is bright and cheery. The rooms provide reasonable privacy. Each of the four dorm wings has a TV lounge area and laundry room. Leisure-Time Services On-center activities include volleyball, softball, soccer, video games, pool tables, dances, and arts and crafts (including ceramics). Other leisure-time activities include: off-center trips, a computer lab, and community volunteer projects. Transportation is available for students to visit the local community when they have obtained an off-center pass from the Residential Advisor. Career Training Springdale JCC offers six vocational training programs. A student is on-the-job during the training day. The instructor is considered to be the employer and will evaluate the student as the employee. A positive attitude and hard work assure a solid reference upon completion. Each vocation has specific professional requirements for safety and dress. Academics Springdale offers educational training tied to your occupational choice and tailored to your needs. You learn at your own pace and don't compete with others for grades. Our instructors have high expectations for you and are committed to helping you get your General Education Development (GED) Certificate. Those who qualify can complete a High School Diploma through a partnership with Corbett High School. Springdale is accredited by the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges and registered as an Oregon State Alternative School.
