Academic and Career Planning

Academic and Career Planning is a student-driven process where students explore and make informed decisions about their future. All students in grades 6-12 throughout Wisconsin are provided academic and career development activities. For middle school students, we focus on career exploration, learning about self (interests and abilities) and exposure to various careers and career clusters.
