ISC Hot Topic: The Time To Start Thinking About College/Career Paths is Earlier Than You Think! 
When - Tuesday, Nov 20, 9:30 am
Where - LM Academy Building, 506 Bryn Mawr Avenue, Bala Cynwyd 
Rich Marta, Supervisor of K-12 Counseling, Testing & Holistic Supports, will be our guest speaker at the next ISC "Hot Topic". He will focus on the District's program K-12 college and career readiness. How to expose our students to all the options; career exploration starts in kindergarten! 
Pennsylvania's economic future depends on having a well-educated and skilled workforce that is prepared to meet the current and projected demands of a global, knowledge-based 21st century economy. Therefore, it is imperative that Pennsylvania students at all educational levels have access to high-quality academic and technical education, as well as opportunities to assess interests, build skills, and identify and explore careers aligned to those interests and skills. Regardless of their postsecondary plans, all students should leave secondary education with a solid foundation in career education and work. 
Pennsylvania regulation (Chapter 339) established the development and implementation of a comprehensive program of K-12 guidance services aligned to The Career Education & Work standards, and requires all school entities to integrate the CEW standards into the curriculum. Come join Rich Marta, Supervisor of K-12 Counseling and Testing, and other School Counselors, in discussing LMSD's progress in the proposed plan.
