Research has shown that students with visions of what they want to do after high school are better primed for success. How do they develop those visions? From enriching in-classroom and extracurricular activities, designed to build self-awareness and expose them to the world of business. Students with such experiences are much more likely to stay in school, take relevant courses, and graduate. Post-graduation, they’re prepared and motivated to enter college, skilled trade, or national service—and to succeed, there and in life.
