Kelsey Tate, Kaskaskia College Dual Credit & Career Pathways Coordinator, spoke with our 8th grade students and their parents this evening about the Kaskaskia College Career Pathways tool. This tool helps to develop a roadmap to achieving career goals. By introducing families to the Career Pathways tool at the 8th grade level, it allows students to recognize how the courses they take as freshman and sophomores in high school can set them up for success in dual credit during their junior and senior year.
During the presentation, information was also shared on other dual enrollment programs that students can take advantage of during high school including KC Now and Jump Start resulting in a significant savings to families.
Go to kaskaskia.edu and click on the Career Pathways button on the right hand side of the page to learn more.
Thank you, Kelsey Tate and Kaskaskia College, for offering this learning opportunity to our families.
