Self-Advocacy Grows With Career Choices Program at
Wheatland Union High SchoolCarol Keiser, a teacher and CTE director at Wheatland Union High School, said that with her school’s Career Choices series program, students are learning more about how to start taking steps in high school that will help them achieve their goals later. Around 20 percent of students at Wheatland are now enrolled in both high school and college at the same time, she said.
“It’s definitely creating a new culture of hope for our students,” Keiser said. “It’s really helped our students become stronger as a self-advocate in telling us what they want and what they need and coming in to ask us ‘How am I going to get it?’... It allows me to customize my teaching to their goals, and it builds relevance within the classroom.”
