 &
School Guidance
Counseling Program
Program Mission:
---------------------
All students will demonstrate consistent attitudes
and behaviors that will lead them to achieve their
goals, meet or exceed standards of academic
performance, and make self-directed, realistic
and responsible decisions in an increasingly
complex world.
------------------------------------------
The Comprehensive Guidance and Counseling
Program of the Hillsboro School District is an
essential and integral part of the District's com-
mitment to the education and development of
each student as it promotes individual unique-
ness, multicultural diversity, and maximizing
each students potential. The program address-
es the educational, career, social and personal
needs of all students.
Program Philosophy
We believe that guidance and counseling are
vital for our students to achieve personalized,
relevant learning and to develop meaningful
educational plans while in school and beyond.
We believe that growth and learning are devel-
opmental and, therefore, the program must be
developmental and sequential.
We believe that the comprehensive knowledge
and skills that students need for success in
school and in life are attainable when guidance
and counseling is provided in a consistent and
developmental way for each and every student.
We acknowledge that guidance and counseling
must be coordinated with all educators within
2 Hillsboro School District
www.hsd.k12.or.us/Academics/Programs/CollegeandCareerPathways.aspx
and between schools, not just one person or de-
partment.
We recognize that guidance and counseling
must be integrated into academic and other ser-
vices and must involve parents and the broader
community.
When fully implemented, the Comprehensive
Guidance and Counseling Program will:
Address the needs of all students
Be an integral part of the instructional pro-
gram and the total educational experience
Include structured activities based upon the
needs of each student, including develop-
mental, preventative, and remedial services
Provide accountability and continuous im-
provement through annual review of student
progress and program and staff evaluation
Include appropriate professional develop-
ment for all staff to maintain quality
Depend upon the support and collaboration
of administrators, teachers, other school per-
sonnel, students, and the community
Be coordinated and implemented by licensed
school counselors.
ACT ASPIRE Testing
In the Hillsboro School District. all eighth-
grade students take the ACT ASPIRE test,
which assesses knowledge and skills learned in
English, math, reading, and science. This is fol-
lowed by the ACT test, given to all tenth-grade
students within the district.
Scoring on both tests break down the areas
where the student is strong, where they need
improvement, and outlines tips for improve-
ment. There is also a career interest inventory,
which is then analyzed along with test scores
and shown on the report as a possible career
learning area. The inventory provides a link and
code specific to the student for further career
exploration on the ACT website.
For more information about ACT ASPIRE, vis-
it www.discoveractaspire.org. For information
on how ACT ASPIRE works in your school,
please contact your counselor.
0.5 Career Credit
At all of our high schools, there is a 0.5 career
credit that aligns each students school experi-
ence with the District goal of having all our stu-
dents graduate with a post-secondary plan and
the ability to succeed in that plan.
The 0.5 career credit consists of:
9th grade Naviance activity
10th grade Naviance activity
11th grade Naviance activity
Resume
Three-hour job shadow/career day (fulfilled
through a partnership with the Hillsboro
Chamber of Commerce's School-to-Work
Program, or STW)
12th grade one-on-one meeting to discuss
post-secondary plan
Students will be completing the Naviance ac-
tivities, resume and meeting during allotted
class time. However, the job shadow/career day
activity needs to be done on the students own
time. Each student will fill out a placement
request form indicating their career interests.
STW personnel look for placement opportu-
nities and inform the student. It then becomes
the students responsibility to coordinate trans-
portation, their absence from classes, and any
missing schoolwork. They also complete the ac-
companying packet.
The job shadow/career day packet consists of
signing a contract, reading over a checklist,
completing the prearranged absence form (if
necessary), responding to 13 questions about
the position, a short evaluation of the experi-
ence, and a thank you letter to the volunteer of
the experience.
For more information ont the School-to-Work
program, visit www.hillchamber.org/stw.
OSAC ASPIRE and AmeriCorps
Another part of all high schools' career and
college preparation is a partnership with the
Office of Student Access and Completions
(OSAC) Access to Student Assistance Programs
in Reach of Everyone (OSAC ASPIRE). This
is a state-operated mentoring program for high
school students utilizing community volunteers
(e.g., parents, alumni, area college students and
business leaders), who come into the school and
meet with every senior individually about life
after high school.
Volunteers go through OSAC ASPIRE training
and are given the resources necessary to be able
to answer the questions the students may have
about jobs and careers, college information, fi-
nancial aid and scholarships, etc.
To learn more about the OSAC ASPIRE pro-
gram please visit www.oregonstudentaid.gov/
aspire.aspx or contact your schools career and
college counselor.
The OSAC ASPIRE program is coordinated
by school staff members as well as AmeriCorps
volunteers. AmeriCorps is a service program
in the education, environmental, public safety,
health and homeland security fields fulfilled in
the local, state and national sectors. Volunteers
commit to serving a year in their position, with
their goal being to continue and develop and
strengthen the project they are working on.

Career and College Centers
As more and more people are entering the work-
force, there is a higher demand for assistance
with finding successful post-secondary options
for our students. Within each high school is a
Career and College Center where items and
resources such as scholarship guides and appli-
cations, job search help, military information,
etc. can be found with the assistance of Career

Naviance Exploration
In an effort to provide the best tools for our students, Hillsboro School District has invested in the Naviance
program, a web-based program with grade appropriate tasks assigned to students in order to individually
support their post-secondary pathway planning. Within the program are tools that support CLA explora-
tion such as an interest profiler and the RoadTrip Nation Interview Archive. Each secondary school has its
own Naviance page and each student has been given a login.

To access the page, go to: http://connection.naviance.com/ and add the school-specific page name as noted
below. For example, Evergreens page would be entered as:
http://connection.naviance.com/evergreenjhs

Naviance Page Names

Brown Middle School: rabrown
Evergreen Middle School: evergreenjhs
Poynter Middle School: jwpoynter
South Meadows Middle School: smms
Century High School: centuryhs
Glencoe High School: glencoehs
Hillsboro High School: hillsborohs
Liberty High School: libertyhs

Naviance Logins
The students user name comprises the first four letters of their last name, first initial, then the last three
digits of their student ID. The password is their student ID. For example:

Name: John Smith -> username: smitj456

ID#: 123456 password: 123456
