Preparing Middle School Students for College and Career

Middle school students begin considering more long-term goals by discovering their interests in various industry sectors. Our career and college prep program allows them to take a two-course series of career exploration to get a broad overview of job fields, progressing from general information to more in-depth study into specific career opportunities. This insight will help them better choose a career pathway in high school, giving them a competitive edge for college and career.
