Academic planning
The heart of early intervention
is academic preparation and proper course selection. Studies show that many
students who might be admitted to postsecondary schools are not taking courses
at the middle school and high school levels that would prepare them to do so.
Students, regardless of their
postsecondary plans, should be counseled by parents, teachers, and counselors to
pursue a challenging program of study in middle school and high school. Just because a student
isn't planning on college or career training immediately after high school, that
doesn't mean he might not change his mind later on. Students should be
encouraged to keep "as many doors open" as possible. It is all part of helping
them realize postsecondary options when the time is right!
