G Competencies

G. Life Survival Skills

G Competencies are the first section of the high school competencies that fall outside of the core competencies. They tend to be more specific than the core competencies, and thus many will be covered at the same time as activities focused on core competencies. They are a combination of practical, tangible skills as well as soft skills that contribute to student success in many areas.
