Purpose

 

Navigation 101 or TRIBE empowers students to make the education system work for them, so they can take charge of their own future.  This personalized learning plan helps students become contributing, productive citizens by understanding how to navigate high school.  Students will graduate with a specific plan for life after high school that involves college, work, military, technical school, industrial certification, or another option.
