Your counselor is your teacher for the Power of Knowing course. Students begin each school year with a course specifically targeted to the unique concerns of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. This course allows each student to perform an in-depth exploration of their interests, abilities, and skills. Students explore their education and career interests, define goals, and create a path through high school that will prepare them for their plans after high school. In addition, this course serves as a "home base" where students and school counselors can address topics that are critical to ensuring success in high school and beyond. This course is required for all students and is worth 1.0 elective credits each school year. During the Power of Knowing course, students will complete their ICAP requirements as well as the Capstone Project, an option to meet the additional requirements set forth by the state of Colorado.
