SchooLinks
Each student’s path is unique. Five Star District middle and high school students use the SchooLinks software tool to discover their interests and to get ideas about possible options for life beyond high school.
SchooLinks is the official career and college readiness platform for Five Star students in grades 6-12. It helps students and their families create an individualized roadmap to serve each student's unique skills, interests, and goals for the future.
A New Way to Support Your Student’s Future
SchooLinks is a modern, student-centric college and career planning platform that helps Five Star students in grades 6-12 and families align personal interests and aspirations with preparation for life beyond high school.
Over time, students will build a personalized portfolio, complete career interest inventories, set goals, search for and apply to colleges and other postsecondary options, find scholarships, track earned certificates and credentials, tap into internship opportunities, develop a robust resume, and much, much more.
