My Life Plan is a post-secondary planning graduation opportunity for the class of 2010 and beyond.  In middle school, students will learn how to make successful transitions, explore careers, and make academic plans based on possible career paths. As 9th and 10th graders, students take inventories and surveys related to self-exploration, encouraging them to think about their interests, personality, and how these aspects all relate to the world of work.  As 11th and 12th graders, students transition to actually forming and executing a plan, ranging from career and college searches to post-secondary and job applications.

Students will:

• learn information about how to make informed decisions about college, career, and work;

• create a resume for job and college applications;

• stay on track with credits and get to know their school counselor;

• search for colleges and scholarships;

• learn information about going to college ... finding a career ... succeeding after high school ... earning a salary;

• complete graduation requirements via classroom guidance, and individual planning experiences delivered by the school counselors.
