Academy Selection Process

Academy Selection for this year's 9th graders starts January 4th and 5th. Students in Megan Goodale's science classes will start us out in the I102 lab on Wednesday (January 4th) with Sara O'rourke's classes the following day (January 5th).

Students will complete the R.I.A.S.E.C. test to see what their Career Personality Types are and then use Career Kokua (online State of Hawaii Career Site) to complete their "SELF PORTRAIT" organizer. The self portrait asks for information based on their personality results and from investigation of two sectionas of Career Kokua's Holland Sections to help them make sense of their results.

Students will then complete their Self Portrait organizer with personal information about what is important to them and what they like to do. They will also record several career areas that were explored in their search that looked interesting.

Students will then get a brief overview about our academies and will find out what other activities will be included in the Academy Selection and Registration process.
