The School Counseling Department's goal in college and career readiness is to support students explore the world of work as well as their own interests and skills as these relate to a variety of professions and career opportunities. We also support students to acquire knowledge about diverse educational pathways so they can be successful in their transition from K-12 education to post-secondary life.
Project Next
Project Next helps high school students plan and prepare for their future - the future that’s best for them.
Project Next Future Centers are located on all SMUSD high school campuses. They are staffed by full-time Project Next Career Coaches who work with all high school students, adding value to the work of our amazing school counseling teams.
Project Next’s Career Coaches provide programs and resources that help students discover and cultivate their interests and strengths, connect to compatible career paths, develop financial literacy skills, prepare for college and career, and build life skills. All students can access 1:1 support, ensuring no student is excluded from this critical training due to access barriers.
Students graduate college and career-ready with resumes in hand, mock interview experience, money management skills, and an understanding of their interests and strengths.
