INFO FOR 10G FAMILIES & STUDENTS
10th Grade Future Pathways
Hello 10th grade students and families. We are incredibly excited to begin working with you as you start your sophomore year, and I am looking forward to getting your college and career journey underway. For 10th grade students and families, the primary contact is Wali (wali@iceeducate.org).
For 10th grade students, we want to build, expose and expand! In 10th grade, we want students to broaden their involvement in existing activities and academic interests or explore new ones. Students aren’t necessarily identifying specific colleges or identify specific plans for after high school. Instead, the goal is to build a knowledge base of different pathways for after high school and steps to be prepared for these various pathways.
Some activities we offer for 10th graders:
An overview Zoom for 9/10 Families
College tours + worksite visits
Support with College Now (dual enrollment) classes
Support with applying for SYEP + summer programs
Career panels + events
Spring semester “Futures” class, focused on career exploration, goal setting, resume building, and self-exploration
Students and families are also encouraged to explore college fairs + events on their own. A list of upcoming programs is included here:
Questions? Get in touch! Please come by our office in Room 522B to say hello and tell us about your interests, goals, and aspirations. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have via email.
