Preparing students for success after high school is an inherent component of the Douglas County School System's vision. Whether students plan to enter the workforce immediately or attend college after high school graduation, careful consideration of high school course options can impact their futures.
To better prepare students for the demands of the 21st-century economy and for post-secondary education, the Douglas County School System has provided this planning guide for use by students and their parents. Use this planning guide to set career goals and plan for the world of future work.
This planning guide shows the clear connection between class work and future success, pointing out the relevance of academic learning in the classroom. It also provides information on a variety of occupations that differ in the scope of education and training required to obtain future employment.
The Career Planner is updated each year and published in January to guide students through advisement and registration.
