Preparing Students for the Future
Today’s students are stepping into a fast-changing, competitive global workforce. Nearly 90% of the fastest-growing jobs in the U.S. require education after high school—whether that’s a two- or four-year degree, professional certification, or specialized training.
To be ready for these opportunities, students need strong technical skills, along with a solid foundation in the Four Cs: collaboration, creativity, communication, and critical thinking. At WCPSS, we’re committed to helping every student graduate ready to succeed in college, careers, and life.
Students are encouraged to connect with their school counselor and Career Development Coordinator to explore options and start building the skills they need for a bright future.
