Get Focused...Stay Focused!

The GFSF program is unlike other college and career preparation programs in several respects. • GFSF was designed for ALL students rather than a select few or a special population • GFSF is a whole-school redesign project with a continuum covering the four years of high school. • GFSF is a curriculum-based effort, with comprehensive instructional materials for each of the above classroom efforts • The GFSF program flips the paradigm of college and career planning. • Students graduate with two vital and unique documents: their dynamic 10-year Career and Life Plan along with their Skills-based Education Plan. • Students complete an online 10-year career, life and education plan that is broader than the four-year education plans commonly used by high schools and colleges. • A new mobile app will provide portability and just-in-time access to the 10-year Plan. • The Skills-based Education Plan that promotes successful entry into the workforce, rather than the traditional Student Education Plan that merely focuses on graduation from college. • The coursework for GFSF supports the development the higher-order thinking skills rather than default to online assessments. • The coursework for GFSF supports the development the non-cognitive skills required for success is the workplace.
