College & Career Counseling
Keeping an Eye on the Future
Successful education programs aren't just concerned with the now; they have students' futures to look out for, as well as their present. This is why K12 offers a full package of college and career services for students in grades 7-12.
Naviance® — Family Connection
Through the Web-based counseling system Naviance, students can explore college and career options, take part in creating their Individualized Learning Plan, construct a resume, and more.
Individualized Learning Plan (ILP)
K12’s Individualized Learning Plan (ILP) maps out a student’s multi-year personalized learning strategy. It is designed to organize and properly sequence the student’s course work while helping articulate the student’s academic strengths and weaknesses—all in relation to the student’s personal goals and mission statement identified as part of the ILP process.
Finding Your Path — Planning for Career and College Course
This 30-40 hour K12 course is unique for each student. School counseling staff guide students through an in-depth exploration of their interests, abilities, and skills. Students explore their education and career interests, define goals, and create a path through high school that will get them there. In addition, this course serves as a “home base” where students and school counselors can address topics that are critical in ensuring success in high school and beyond. Use of the K12 online career and college counseling tools are featured in this course. (Students may re-enroll in this course yearly. Many course activities are related to specific grade levels and proximity to graduation.)
