As a reminder, if you decide to attend the career center, WKHS students are always Kilbourne students. With most programs you will have the option of attending the career center for full days (where you would take your lab coursework which counts as elective credits and your academic courses all at the career center) or for half days (where you only take the lab coursework at the career center and then return to WKHS for the other half of the day for your academic classes). You still graduate from Worthington Kilbourne and continue to participate on our athletic teams - even if you decide that you want to attend the career center for the full day.
I strongly encourage you to check out the programs because the hands on opportunities to learn something new while also gaining your required elective credits can be a very appealing option! Attending the Delaware Area Career Center is a competitive process and students must apply for consideration. If you are interested, please make sure to start working on your application because it is now open and you'll want to get it submitted so that they can consider you for a spot in their program. The priority application deadline for optimal consideration is January 17th.
Information about the Senior Only Open House, Family Tours and the application to attend DACC are all located on their website.
Additionally, while thinking about career exploration opportunities, all students received an email inviting you to sign up for a Healthcare Career Summit which will take place in February, but the deadline to register is this coming Friday, December 13th. There was a MASSIVE response to the email so I believe we already have more than the 64 students we are allowed to take to the event, but if you didn't sign up and are still interested in trying to attend, please be sure to register asap. There is a chance we will end up needing to prioritize by grade level since 9th graders would have 3 more years to participate, but Juniors and Seniors have a greater need to attend now with their time available to explore careers running short. But we won't know what we are going to do for registrations to attend until we see how many people were hoping to try to go.
