We ❤️ a good assessment! On February 14th, all 11th grade students will participate in the ASVAB assessment, often thought of as the "Military Test," though it's much more than that. Students will have the opportunity to use their scores on the test to explore their strengths and postsecondary opportunities both in the military and out. See the link below to learn more about the Career Exploration Program and find prep materials to help you succeed on test day. Breakfast will be provided, so rest up and come ready to show us what you know!
