COUNSELOR’S CORNER
Welcome back to another exciting school year.
At the high school level we will be implementing a
new program in conjunction with the Hillsdale Community Foundation. There will be different areas that each
of the grade levels will be looking at. In 9th grade the
students will be focusing on career cruising, looking at
career options and interests based on the assessment
they fill out. In 10th grade they will be going on awareness tours which will include college visits, manufacturing companies and health care just to name a few. In
11th grade they will go on Talent Tours where they will
explore more in-depth on their chosen career. In each
of these grade levels the students will be exploring areas based on their career cruising assessment. In 12th
grade we will be focusing on future corps, where the
students will be filling out college applications, scholarships, FAFSA, and resume’ building just to name a few.
I am very excited because this will enable us to help our
students become more prepared for college and career
planning.
I am excited to begin the new school year with your
students. As always if you have any questions or concerns please contact me through the high school office
or email at chall@najps.org
