- Students need repeated opportunities to engage in career awareness,
exploration, and planning activities (Grades 6-12 next year; Grades K-12 after)
- Students need multiple opportunities to gain insights to their
interests, aptitudes, values, and preferences related to careers
- Students need to see the relevance/connection between school
subjects and the world of work
- Students need to gain insights to the labor market for in-demand
jobs (jobs waiting to be filled)
- Students need insights to the cost/benefit ratio for training,
higher education, and cost of living expenses
- Students need to be aware of alternative educational opportunities
such as CCP, Credit Flex, Career Tech
- Students at risk of dropping out of school need early intervention
and a plan for success
Our students tell us they need all of these things, beginning as early as
possible.
The purpose of this Career
Advising Plan is to address these student needs.
