Grade 11

School Counselors meet with all 11th graders and their parents/guardians to ensure success in life following high school graduation - whether it be college or going directly into the workforce. This meeting is a mandatory part of every high school student's Academic & Career Plan ("ACP").  ACP conferences focus on the student's current talents and interests, as well as his/her educational and career development.  School Counselors utilize Xello and Aspire test data to assist students in planning their future. The conferences are scheduled during the school day during the months of November and December - conferences last approximately 45 - 60 minutes.
