Printer-friendly versionPrinter-friendly version

This session will present the Personal Education Plans (PEP) used in the Valdez, Alaska, school district. The plans help students focus on readiness for future success, whether in college, work, or another pathway that can lead to a productive, fulfilling, and financially secure life. The plans give students information in such critical areas as knowledge acquisition, skill development, and attitudes and behaviors that contribute to success. A “Helping Students Plan for Success Starter Kit” will help participants focus on establishing an individual student-learning program in their districts.
