Freshmen (Class of 2028)
Hello Class of 2028!
Welcome to Plainfield North High School! We are so excited to work with you over the next 4 years. Soon enough, you will meet your specific alpha counselor who will be a valuable resource for you as you navigate high school. As the College and Career Counselor, I will be another resource for you in addition to your alpha counselor. During freshman year, I will share with you the PNHS College & Career Center website, as well as School Links, our college and career research and planning tool. You will complete various inventories in School Links to identify your talents and then explored careers that best utilize those talents. Once you have a career path in mind, School Links lists potential college majors and you can search for colleges with that major (as well as other criteria such as college location and size). We also have more information listed on the PNHS College & Career Center website about colleges, military, and trade schools.
You will be using School Links for your entire time at PNHS to guide you through this journey of creating a career goal and making a plan to get there. School Links is a new program implemented this school year for all freshmen, sophomores and juniors. You will complete a variety of activities to help show you your natural talents that lead to various career paths.
Please contact Mrs. Kalantzis, College & Career Counselor, (Email Mrs. Kalantzis) or your Counselor with any questions.
Have a fantastic school year!
