[0:00] Hi there. My name is Jordan and I'm here
[0:03] to tell you about something super cool
[0:05] happening at our [music] school. It's
[0:07] called the personal learning plan. From
[0:10] preK all the way through graduation, our
[0:13] personal learning plan is all about you.
[0:16] It [music] helps us understand more
[0:17] about ourselves through lessons about
[0:20] self-discovery, financial literacy,
[0:22] career awareness, and post-secary
[0:24] education. Starting early, we get to
[0:27] explore what we're good at and what we
[0:29] love to do. It's like an adventure where
[0:31] we learn more about ourselves every day.
[0:34] The personal learning plan helps us
[0:36] explore careers with excellent
[0:38] opportunities at every grade level as we
[0:40] grow. Through the high school career
[0:43] [music] pathways program, we can take
[0:45] foundational courses and even more
[0:47] options, including advanced and college
[0:49] [music] credit classes. At the
[0:51] district-wide career pathways program,
[0:54] we get to explore four exciting career
[0:56] fields: science and medical, innovative
[0:59] and emerging technology, business
[1:01] [music] and communications, and
[1:03] education and human services. These
[1:05] fields open a world of possibilities.
[1:08] With hands-on learning and leadership
[1:10] opportunities in clubs and
[1:12] organizations, we can explore our
[1:14] interests more deeply. Imagine building
[1:17] robots, leading a debate team, or
[1:19] running a school store. High school
[1:22] students can earn industry [music]
[1:24] certifications like certified nursing
[1:26] assistant, Microsoft Excel, and
[1:28] automotive service excellence. How
[1:31] awesome is that? These certifications
[1:33] give us a head start in our careers.
[1:35] Thanks to our strong partnerships with
[1:37] local organizations and businesses, we
[1:40] get realworld learning experiences.
[1:43] We can go on tours, meet professionals,
[1:46] do mock interviews, and even get paid
[1:48] internships. These experiences help us
[1:51] learn about career paths we might want
[1:53] to pursue after high school. [music] And
[1:55] guess what? We even get to decide if we
[1:57] like them or not before making big
[1:59] decisions about our future. the personal
[2:02] learning plan out our future world
[2:04] careers by giving us practical skills
[2:07] and valuable experience.
[2:09] Whether in science, business,
[2:11] technology, or education, we're ready to
[2:14] take on the world. With the personal
[2:16] learning plan, we're all set to [music]
[2:18] discover who we are and what we want to
[2:21] do in the future. It's all about us from
[2:24] preK through graduation. [music]
