We are pleased to have some members of our US Armed Forces joining us today. They are here to administer the ASVAB exam to our juniors. This is a major part of our graduation project. The results are a great indicator of students' strengths and areas of need in a variety of areas (math and reading skills, electronice information, auto and shop information, general science knowledge, and mechanical comprehension). We travel into english classrooms to review student score reports, discuss questions, and talk about how to integrate the valuable results with students' desires for postsecondary planning. Students use this data, along with several interest inventories, information about current job trends, information related to students' career choices (such as education required, work environment, etc), and their job shadowing experience to create a paper called the "I-search." This paper, along with all of the above components, comprise the junior portion of the graduation project.
Best of luck to all of our students today!
We are also pleased to announce that PSAT registration will be open to juniors only beginning on Wednesday of this week. More info to come!
