Dear Colleague,

As the school year winds down and summer begins, it's easy to put professional opportunities on the back burner. But if your students completed a Career Choices series course this year, now is actually the perfect time to submit your application for a Career Choices Medal.

The Career Choices Medal program recognizes educators and schools that are helping students develop the skills, plans, and confidence needed for success after high school. Whether your students explored career pathways, created meaningful postsecondary plans, strengthened employability skills, or engaged in real-world career readiness activities, your work deserves recognition.

Applying is straightforward, and the benefits extend beyond earning a medal. Medal recipients receive recognition that can be shared with administrators, school boards, parents, and community stakeholders.

Summer offers something that the school year rarely does: time.

Taking a few minutes now to complete your application can ensure your program receives the recognition it has earned before the rush of a new school year begins.

Don't miss the opportunity to showcase the impact you're making. We encourage you to submit your Career Choices Medal application today and join the growing community of schools being recognized for excellence in career readiness education.

We look forward to celebrating your success!

Best,
