 What is the Career Center?*
Career guidance and counseling involves
administrators, counselors, teachers, and career specialists working together
with students and parents to help students make the connection between
classroom academics and career exploration and preparation. The Career Center provides students with
information to help them explore educational and career options, make
realistic career decisions, and establish career goals. *From Career Resource
Center Brochure, Fairfax County Public Schools.

students are free to stop at lunch, and before or after school. Visits
during class time require a signed planner or pass from teacher.
