Continuing Education
Education beyond a high school diploma is critical for increased income and career opportunities. If you don’t already have a plan for next year, it’s time to start considering your options and making decisions. There are many great reasons to continue your education. Talk to your parents, teachers and guidance counselors about what makes sense for you.
