High School ACP
WHAT DOES ACP LOOK LIKE AT OUR HIGH SCHOOLS?
Throughout their time at our high schools, students will have a variety of opportunities to thoughtfully consider who they are as people and how that relates to future career options.
Students will utilize Xello to engage in career-related exploration. Students will complete interest inventories, career research, set academic and personal goals and do reflections with the support of faculty and staff.
Students will be exposed to a variety of hands-on experiences to help them begin narrowing the focus of possible career options.
