What is Career Planning

A career is not just an occupation or paid job. It is all the productive work, paid and unpaid, performed throughout a person's lifetime. This includes work at home and volunteer work in the community, as well as work for an employer. Career education is a joint effort of the home, school, and community to provide all students from prekindergarten through high school with opportunities to:
  • learn about their interests, abilities, and aspirations
  • become aware of and appreciate a range of careers
  • develop decisions-making, job-seeking, and job-keeping skills

Career education is delivered to Clovis Municipal School students in three ways: through the instructional program, the guidance program, and collaborative school/community programs.

Career education objectives are infused into the subject-area curricula, where they can most appropriately carry out the intent of both the subject-area and career-education objectives.

Classroom instruction of career education is supported by school counselors, college/career information coordinators, career center, Clovis Community College, and members of the business community who provide career infromation to staff and students. Schools also plan career activities that serve as an introduction to many types of careers.
