Inspired to continually push our goals to reflect the challenges that we face. These challenges come in many forms and underscores the uncertainty and apprehension many feel for our future. Still, I feel our future is bright because we learn and grow from adversity. As stated in our vision statement, we have an opportunity “to be a model for innovation for health equity driven by excellence in education, community outreach and research while strengthening the climate by supporting a diverse and inclusive learning and working environment.” The 2017-2018 HSC Annual Diversity Report renews its’ focus on the four critical and interdependent components of 1) Access, Equity & Success; 2) Curricular Transformation; 3) Learning & Development; and 4) Campus Climate as outlined by American Association of Colleges and Universities Model of Inclusive Excellence and Change in Postsecondary Institutions. It is vital that we, as a university and its Health Science Center campus, incorporate diversity, inclusion, and yes, equity, in all of these interlocking elements to achieve excellence in our work and environment.

But that doesn’t mean the future is beyond your reach. That’s because the future is not just something that happens to you—it’s something you build yourself. In fact, whether you know it or not, you’ve been working on this project ever since you first started figuring out what things you did well and how you liked to spend your time. Those personal likes and dislikes go into deciding what work you want to do when you get out of school. The easiest way to get a handle on your future is to wake up to the fact that you control it now, that what you do at work and at play is all part of building your own personal story, and that you can start now to steer your life in the direction you want it to go. Your school district, Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS), wants to help you take this important step. To position each high school student to pursue high-skill, high-wage professional careers needed in Louisville, we are offering five Professional Career Themes across our high schools.
