Xello Career Planning is always something that is available to you. To access this, log in to your Clever account and look for the Xello app. After you have completed the PreACT, your counselor will visit with you
individually to discuss your plans and preparation for life after high
school.
WACC Applications are due in early March.
There is no tuition/textbook fee for WHS students. For those interested
in attending the Warrensburg Area Career Center for any one of the
following careers, you will have to complete and submit an
application to your counselor in March of your sophomore year. To
increase your potential for acceptance into the program of your choice,
keep your grades up, keep your attendance up, avoid tardy's, avoid
discipline referrals, avoid truancies, and let your counselor know your
career interests early on so (s)he can better support your application
into a particular program. The five WACC programs available to high
school students are:
- Computer Technologies (1 or 2 year program)
- Auto Service Technology I & II
- Auto Collision Technology I & II
- Construction Technology I & II
- Health Sciences I & II
- Descriptions of these programs can be found in our Course Description Guide
