At this stage in your life, getting to high school is hard enough to imagine, much less college. Still, you and your parents can do many things right now to create a plan for your future, and we are here to help. You already know many of your likes and dislikes. You have favorite subjects in school, and you probably have an idea or two about careers that would interest you.
- Order a free copy of the Challenge Your Future Game (or other free materials) to play on your own or with your Mom or Dad to learn many of things you need to know about how to plan your life and learning after high school.
