What is Naviance Student?

Naviance Student is a web-based program that supports students in exploring and developing their postsecondary plans. It addresses four key areas of college and career readiness:

Self-Discovery – "Who Am I?"
Students find college and career pathways that are right for them.

Career Exploration – "What Do I Want To Be?"
Students realize their strengths, goals, skills, knowledge, and interests to help them make better academic decisions.

Academic Planning – "How Will I Get There?"
Students connect academic achievement with long-term goals.

College and Career Preparation – "Will I Be Successful?"
Students research and compare colleges and universities, explore and apply to scholarship opportunities, and track the status of transcripts and letters of recommendations.

All Middle School and HS sites have a College and Career Specialist to support students and staff with Naviance College and Career Readiness lessons and tasks.  Pictured left to right: Olivia Santhuff, Christy Olszynski, Sarah Keeth, Sarah Clayton, Amy Patton, Caroline Cook, Robin Robertson, Michelle Rabinowitz, Hailey Needham.
