    What are Individual


    Graduation Plans (IGP)?
    The Economic Development Act (EEDA) was passed in 2005. The implementation of this law was designed to
    better prepare yourself for what you want to do after high school and to help you and your parents/guardians
    make informed decisions about your education and future. The core of this law is the idea of planning. You,
    along with your parent, will begin to create an IGP in the 8th grade as you prepare to enter the high school. During this time, you will select a cluster of study as you map out courses to take in high school. A career cluster is a
    way of organizing classes around an occupational group. Each year in high school, you will review your IGP with a
    guidance counselor and changes can be made based on your interest.
    The Guidance Department will be scheduling the IGP meetings for 8th graders. You will receive a letter in the
    mail over the next few of months which will have a scheduled appointment time. This meeting will allow your
    student to choose a cluster of study. This plan can be changed and will be re-visited each year during registration. If you have a conflict or unable to attend the assigned appointment time, please contact Allison Redick at
    803-476-3668 or email at [email protected].

    Tips for Parents


    In helping your child
    chose a Career path:
    Start young. Develop career awareness by discussing career opportunities when reading books and
    newspapers, watching television and observing
    worksites.
    Support you childs efforts to assess his or her own
    interests, aptitudes, values and work styles.
    Share your job experiences. A child delights in hearing about his or her parents jobs.
    Encourage participation in job shadowing and internship opportunities.
    Help your child understand the value and importance of his or her academic courses for success in a future
    career.
    6. Advise your child that there is more than one education pathway to a good job. More than 50% of the fastest growing jobs require an associates degree. There are a variety of routes to success: on the job training,
    technical college, four year college, apprenticeships or the military.
