    The counselors encourage students to reflect on their interests and strengths when selecting classes as well as have conversations with parents and teachers to help navigate their course load. While choosing courses, please consider the following:

    • Your areas of interest and career aspirations
      • Through Naviance, students can access the Career Interest Profile and the Career Cluster Finder career exploration tools.
      • Browse the Career Cluster pages at the back of the Course Book (pgs 132-139)
      • Also, check out the Career Exploration posters in the Counseling hallway
    • Post-secondary goals
    • Rigorous but balanced course load
