Noteworthy Items:
Career Cruising (www.careercruising.com) is a new web based career exploration program for grades 7 - 12. We encourage parents to use this resource with their sons/daughters at home. Simply go to the website and enter the username and password for Three Oaks (Three Oaks, Axemen). Students must first contact Mrs. Reeves, Mr. Donovan or Mrs. Keough to acquire a personal log in and password to access their personal profile.
Career Cruising has been designed with one goal in mind: To help students plan their futures. Some of the assessment tools include: matching interests and skills to careers, descriptions of hundreds of careers, interviews of people in careers, options for searching, links between education and careers, information on post secondary education and other options.
With these type of assessment tools, profiles, and post secondary information, parents and students can easily move through the career exploration and planning process.
