  2. What are you going to do after High School? By the time you graduate high school you will have completed 13 years of school. You will have at least 45 more years, probably more, before retirement. What are you going to do with those 45+ years?

  3. What are you going to do? Get a Job Without any training, you will probably start out at minimum wage ($5.85 per hour.) That is less than $940.00 per month. How much will the following items cost you? • House or Apartment • Utilities (gas, electric, water, etc.) • Auto, gas, insurance, and maintenance • Groceries • Family • Health Insurance • Medical Expenses These are just a few of the items it takes to live. Will you earn enough to survive, to have fun or to retire someday? Source: US Department of Labor

  4. What are you going to do? College According to the National Assessment of Vocational Education (NAVE) report, that two-thirds of America’s young people do not obtain a four year degree and at least 25% of them go directly to work after high school. This means most students either, never attend college, or if they start college they’re not completing and obtaining a four year degree from college.
