Evergreen CCP Connection
Mrs. Wagner spends every Thursday at Evergreen Middle School, talking to students about Career! Over the course of the year, middle schoolers will learn about all of the Career & College Pathways offered at Glencoe, they'll gain exposure to local professionals & learn about their career pathways, and they'll participate in some of our district's School To Career Events in collaboration with the Washington County Chamber of Commerce!
If you want to get a glimpse into some of the content that EMS students receive throughout the course of the year, click below to check out Mrs. Wagner's videos.
Career & College Pathways (CCPs)
Career & College Pathways (CCPs)
Career and college pathways (CCPs) may seem far away, but it is never too early to take that first step and get on the right track. Hillsboro School District is committed to ensuring all students are college- and career-aware, eligible and prepared.
Becoming aware involves early exposure to colleges and careers, interest mapping, guidance lessons and the completion of national standardized tests. It also involves students and parents understanding the requirements for high school graduation as well as entrance requirements for technical or vocational schools, two-year community colleges, four-year public and private colleges, and even the military.
Becoming eligible involves students completing the necessary steps to proceed with their post-high school choice. This includes ensuring they meet entrance requirements, applying for their choice(s) within the deadlines, planning for paying college tuition and/or supporting themselves, and planning the steps needed to achieve their future goal.
Becoming prepared involves gaining the knowledge, skills and work ethic that lead to future success. Students will need a well-rounded education in a wide array of subjects, good study and work habits, and the skills to prepare them for independent living.

Flydowns will be announced during Advisories, to keep your ears out! CCP Ambassadors will Flydown shortly after EMS students learn about that CCP through Advisory videos.
School to Career Events
School to Career Events
We are happy to provide you with some School to Career (STC) Events at Evergreen! These 1 hour events are sponsored by the Washington County Chamber of Commerce, and they will be held virtually in the Evergreen Library throughout the school year. STC Events spotlight local professionals from careers in anything from Marketing to Pediatric Nursing to Engineering to Tattooing to everything in between! Attending these events are a great way for students to get a better idea of the scope of career possibilities, and they'll learn from each professional what the road to that career could look like.
To attend an event, students must sign up using the google form that is published to the Counseling Google Classroom; forms will be released weekly based on available events. Students are only allowed to attend one event per week to minimize time out of class, so if there is more than one event offered each week, pick a favorite! On the day of the event, Counselors will send a pass to a student's class, excusing them for the event. Event attendance will be taken.
Students are responsible for making up classwork they miss while they are at an STC Event. There will also be a 60 student cap to each event, so make sure you sign up if you're interested!

What is Naviance?
As Hillsboro School District Students, Evergreen middle schoolers get access to Naviance, a great Postsecondary readiness tool. Students will be using Naviance to explore and plan careers, learn about their personalities and learning styles, find information on postsecondary education programs, and more! This is a tool that will be utilized all the way through to the end of high school, and there's so much that students can learn about themselves and their career options!
How will EMS students be using Naviance?
Seventh graders will get the opportunity to complete Naviance's Career Key - an assessment that helps students learn more about their career personalities & introduces them to careers that could be a good match for them. Naviance has hundreds of careers for students to explore, and the Career Key is a great jumping off point for students to dive into their career exploration journey!
Eighth graders will be able to complete Naviance's Learning and Productivity assessment. This is a great tool to help students understand their own learning styles. It's a excellent assessment to do as students are preparing to head into high school!
Your EMS counselors will be doing these assessments with students through classroom lessons.
