We have developed the course selection process and this Career and Academic Planning Guide to serve our students and parents in planning for their future.  Each of the support groups below play a vital role in student success.

Parents

The Pea Ridge School District course selection process ensures parental involvement. It is important that students choose their courses and access school services thoughtfully and with consideration toward their goals.  Choices that are made have long-term effects on job opportunities, preparation for college, and skill development.  Parents are critical participants in those decisions.

Teachers

Through the College and Career Readiness program, teachers guide students through the decision making process.  Teachers facilitate the student creation and management of individual online success portfolios. Through their coursework, students will analyze, re-evaluate, and update their personal academic success portfolio annually during the extensive registration process.  

Counselors

The Pea Ridge School District counseling staff guide the course selection process and academic planning process, playing a key role in the development of the academic program and connecting parents, teachers, and students.  Counselors also advise and monitor students in their path to graduation and beginning their post-secondary plan. 

Students

Student need and input drives the course selection process.  It is crucial that students make informed decisions and take responsibility for their own success.
