Naviance is our new College and Career planning tool. Your child has been given an account in their English classes that they can log into from anywhere they can access the internet.
There are different goal levels for each grade so that students can develop their self-knowledge and be able to look at career options and the means to achieve them after school. Freshmen can learn how they learn, what they are interested in, start a resume, and many other activities. For seniors all college applications and scholarship information is also found in their accounts.
All students will be given a log in that they will create using an email address and their own password. Upon logging in there are activities and options for students to utilize based upon their grade level. Sometimes Ms. Howe-Tennant will assign specific tasks for certain students, like a survey. The log in address is http://connection.naviance.com/thomasehs (bookmark this on your computer) If you forgot what you log in information is please see or email Ms. Howe-Tennant dhowetennant@gstboces.org
After logging in you will see a folder with your name on it with different tabs: About Me, Career and My Planner. Each one will have different activities that you can click on to work on. Each time you save things it will stay in your folder to work on next time. Make sure you look at the tasks assigned to you and complete them in a timely fashion. Whenever you are bored you can log in and look at different careers, videos. See how much you can earn, what kind of education you will need and where the jobs are.
