As the school year begins, it’s not just your child who needs to be ready—parents, it’s your time to step up as well. Junior year is more than just another grade level; it’s a pivotal time that can determine your child’s future opportunities. From preparing for standardized tests to exploring potential career paths, this year lays the groundwork for their journey to college. The pressure is real, but with the right tools and guidance, you can help your child navigate this critical phase with confidence. Before you know it, it will be Senior year, which brings a whole new set of tasks. Don’t feel overwhelmed - Let Pathfinders College & Career Services help every step of the way!
But it’s not all about grades and tests—this is also the time to start meaningful conversations about their future. Discussing potential career paths and exploring how their interests can translate into a fulfilling career is crucial.
