High School & Beyond Plan
Xello lessons for all grades were due Feb. 28th, 2024.
THE HIGH SCHOOL & BEYOND PLAN IS A GRADUATION REQUIREMENT!
Xello lessons are student-led and it is the student's responsibility to complete them.
Students can use flex time in the College & Career Center to complete and get help with their Xello lessons.
Students will be responsible for grade-level lessons of all high school years from the 2021/22 school year and forward as follows:
Class of 2024 is required to complete 10th, 11th & 12th grade Xello lessons.
Class of 2025 is required to complete 9th, 10th, 11th & 12th grade Xello lessons.
*4-Year Course Planner (9th) lesson not required.*Class of 2026 is required to complete 9th, 10th, 11th & 12th grade Xello lessons.
*4-Year Course Plan (9th) lesson not required.*Classes 2027 and beyond are required to complete 9th, 10th, 11th & 12th grade Xello lessons.
*4-Year Course Plan (9th) lesson is required and will be introduced to incoming 9th graders.*Please note that the 4-Year Course Plan lessons were introduced in '23-'24 school year, for 8th and 9th graders only. Therefore, graduating classes before 2027 do NOT need to complete them.
Complete lessons when assigned (in the fall of each school year) as they are the most applicable to your current grade level. Going back and doing 10th grade lessons as a senior will have little value.
Xello is a great tool for planning your post-high school goals- make the most of it!
