10th Developmental Program
Counselors will meet with all Sophomores in classroom-sized groups, covering a Career Unit. On day one, a discussion about careers will challenge students to identify careers based on their interest, ability and the job market. An in depth look at what careers are growing from a local, state and national perspective will be discussed. Post-secondary training and its link to in-demand careers will be looked at. The rising cost of education and the disconnect between colleges and the job market will also be examined. On Day two, sophomores will complete the Cluster Finder interest and ability inventory in Naviance. Using a career identified with this inventory, sophomores will research a career using the Occupational Outlook Handbook. They will answer a series of questions about the career they choose.
