ALL GRADE LEVELS can check out our grade level classrooms and work on your Educational Development Plan (EDP) using Xello.  You will find it under the topic "Resources and Forms" and the title is Career Awareness and Exploration. There's also a resume building activity for Juniors!  The more time you spend understanding your skills and interests along with career awareness, the better off you’ll be to make informed career and post-secondary planning decisions.  Enjoy learning about yourself, about careers, and about how it all fits together!

It uses a comprehensive communication system to facilitate tip sharing among students, parents, school personnel, community mental health service programs, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, and law enforcement officials about harmful behaviors that threaten to disrupt the learning environment.
