Business, Education, and the Health sciences are the three biggest majors on campus.

3 2 1 For Juniors: The Graduation Project While graduation may still seem far away, it is getting closer every day. This means it is important for you to be prepared not only for your senior year, but also for beyond high school. The goal of this graduation project is not for you to carve your future into stone, but to lay the foundation of your college and career search. Throughout the school year, you will be given various assignments that will help to get the ball rolling and to give you ideas about what you would like to do after you graduate. Even if you are not sure of what post-high school life holds for you, this graduation project will help you to become familiar with the resources necessary to help you along your way. We will begin by looking at potential career options and will then progress into looking at what colleges appeal to you. You will also fine tune and enhance your writing abilities by producing your own resumes and cover letters. The final component is where you will present your project to your peers. Do not worry, you will have help along the way. If you have any questions, schedule a meeting with Mr. Norcross and you can also talk to Ms. Hazlett, Mr. McLean, and Mrs. Graham. We are all here to help you along the road to your future! By the end of October: Juniors should have finished the following sections and gotten their passports stamped: 1) The Passport itself 2) All parts of Career Cruising: - Learning Styles Inventory - Career Matchmaker - Career Questions in the packet for 3 careers 3
