High school is a time to develop your interests and goals, try new things, and embrace challenges. Striking the right balance between challenging courses, practicing life skills, and extracurricular activities requires plenty of planning! Taking the time to fit the student's goals and needs with their course selection is a critical step in the career and college planning process.
