Program Planning
Students, along with their counselors and parents, begin the development of the High School & Beyond Plan during the fall of the 8th grade year. The High School & Beyond Plan will serve as a blueprint for meeting graduation requirements, post secondary admission requirements, and individual student interests. While the High School & Beyond Plan is reviewed each year during the course selection process, students also have the opportunity to update their plan at any time by meeting with their counselor.
