Our school district uses Naviance as the Washington State required High School & Beyond Planning task-completion platform, and as part of the college application process for senior students. Seniors must request transcripts, Teacher Letters of Recommendation, and link their Common Application to Naviance, in order for EWHS to submit these documents on behalf of the student. But all students should take advantage of Naviance's many future planning activities and tools.  Features such as a resume creator tool to log the events and experiences a student will need for job placement and college applications. Multiple tools to research and learn about thousands of colleges and universities. A Colleges I'm Thinking About List which students will use to develop the final list of colleges they will apply to at the beginning of their senior year.  They will then share this list with EWHS counselors and support staff in order to submit their required high school documents. There are numerous activities to help students explore their personal strengths and interests and to investigate potential careers, colleges and job training opportunities.  If you are an EWHS student and not actively utilizing Naviance, it is important for you to speak with Mrs. Christensen in the Career Center. 


 

Naviance Student: A Web-Based Career and College Planning System for Students

Students in grades 7-12 are provided access to Naviance Student. A web-based Career and College Planning system, it provides a unique individualized experience for your student to engage in early career and college readiness activities. We are very pleased that this system was identified, supported by the School Board, and purchased as part of our District’s Strategic Direction – Graduates Ready for Life. 

Using this system, students learn more about their strengths and interests, define academic and educational goals, explore career and college opportunities, and develop a plan for High School and Beyond with the assistance of their Guidance Counselor, their College & Career Specialist, and others. Providing this tool will help students in middle and high school make better-informed decisions about their education while empowering them to develop and pursue educational plans aligned to their individual college and career goals.

We take pride in supporting our students with their journey in developing their academic and social potential. We encourage you to explore Naviance Student with your child.
