While our academic departments emphasize how their instruction applies to career fields and our guidance department counsels students' career options, some of the best resources for career exploration are provided by Ohio Means Jobs. At HTHS each student must create a portfolio on the Ohio Means Jobs website and complete the valuable career exploration and planning activities, saving each in the personal online backpack. The pictures below show what the Ohio Means Jobs backpack will look like from first logging in through graduation. The check marks indicate which tasks must be completed.
