  • 2020-2021 High School Showcase Booklet
    WELCOME 8TH GRADE PARENTS AND STUDENTS Dear Eighth Grade Students and Parents: Welcome to Volusia County Schools High School Showcase. This is an excellent opportunity for middle school students and their parents to learn about the outstanding programs and career academies available to high school students in Volusia County Schools. We are changing the conversation for our future 9th grade students. It is no longer about the courses required for graduation. Each student should ask themselves, “What is it that I want from my experience in high school that will prepare me for the next step?” It is the goal of this showcase to afford you the opportunity to start addressing this question. Volusia County Schools is recognized as a Next Generation Learning Community by the Ford Motor Company Fund, the philanthropic arm of Ford Motor Company. Volusia County Schools received this recognition for our successful career academies; for our vision, innovation, and leadership; and for our sustained educational competence. Volusia County Schools is also committed to expanding local partnerships, as evidenced by multi-year relationships with AdventHealth, the Daytona Tortugas, and the Volusia Manufacturers Association. These partnerships are a critical piece of community connected Career and Technical Education that prepares students for the workforce. Tonight, we invite you to visit career academies and other programs offered by our high schools. The High School Showcase highlights the many educational choices and programs that are tailored to meet the diverse needs of our students. Parents are encouraged to explore the offerings available at each of our high schools and become actively involved in selecting the programs and/or academies that match the interests, needs and abilities of their children.
