The junior year is an important year to create plans for a career path. Students should consider applying to college, lining up work, or getting specific training at a vocational/technical school. Students are encouraged to meet with their counselors periodically to evaluate progress and to develop educational and vocational plans.
Scheduling
- Scheduling begins during the month of February. Students receive their Course of Studies booklet and the course selection process is discussed during a classroom presentation given by a counselor. The importance of exploring opportunities, future plans and making informed decisions about course selection is stressed.
- Parents/guardians are encouraged to call their child’s guidance counselor if they have any scheduling questions or concerns.
