The requirements are adjusted to require a presentation on a proposed idea for a project, their future plans after high school, or their career goals. Presentations will be 5-10 minutes in length and expected to be recorded and uploaded. A final Senior Capstone Presentation will be compiled by the counseling department to include all the senior presentations.

ICAP is a multi-year process that intentionally guides students and families in the exploration of career, academic and post-secondary opportunities. With the support of adults, students develop the awareness, knowledge, attitudes, and skills to create their own meaningful and powerful pathways to be career and college ready.
