Individual Learning Plans for Grades 6-12
In our firm commitment to support students to prepare for the next stage in life beyond high school, Individual Learning Plans (ILP) have been programmed in SchooLinks – a set of career exploration and readiness activities assigned to students in grades 6 through 12. ILP activities align postsecondary readiness in three domains:
Foundational Skills: The transferable skills needed for a lifetime of learning and success.
Career Awareness and Alignment: An understanding of the various possibilities for long-term employment and the knowledge necessary to enter and progress in a career field.
Academic and Financial Readiness for Postsecondary: The knowledge and savvy to manage costs and rigor associated to opportunities in college, military, employment, job training, apprenticeship, and gap year programs.
