Greetings from the HSBP Office!
We're so glad that you are here reading our Spring HSBP newsletter. We recently uploaded directions for completing Spring 2021 HSBP tasks in to the Class of 2022 HSBP Schoology course for students. Students were added in to the HSBP Schoology Course in the Fall. If you need the Join code for the Class of 2022 please use the code: XMMX-JT4J-C232Q.
Students can access the Junior Class Schoology Course "HSBP Spring 2021 Tasks" Folder where they will find directions for completing Grade 11 tasks:
Completing tasks this year as an 11th grader will make the completion of Grade 12 tasks a lot easier! This newsletter also contains directions for completing Grade 11 Spring HSBP tasks.

Task 1: Update Contact information
Throughout the school year, the High School and Beyond Plan Department (HSBP) checks students' portfolios for task completion. Sometimes, especially for students in Grade 12, we need to be able to reach out to students about a task that may need to be updated in their HSBP portfolio. Students, please update your contact information by using this link to jump directly in to the Update Contact Form: http://bit.ly/3c9QQ09
Task 2: Four Year Course Plan - Planning Your Schedule
A 4-year course plan that meets state and local graduation requirements, aligns with career and educational goals, and documents a students' chosen graduation pathway(s) is a required element of the HSBP portfolio. Completing a 4-year course plan in the HSBP portfolio must be completed in addition to adding course requests in Qmlativ for the 2021/2022 School Year.

CHECK: What Career Self-Assessments does your student still need to take (if any)?
To assist students in their exploration of careers and graduation pathways research, they take Career Self-Assessments and identify careers they may have an interest in.
Students, check your HSBP Completion Status tab to determine if you still need to take any Career Self-Assessments.
- Log into your HSBP Portfolio, using your Mukilteo School District username and password.
- In the center of your Completion Status page, find the Self-Assessments section. If you have a green check mark next to an assessment, you do not need to retake it; we have a record of your responses.
Assessment needed You should have a "green" check for all three assessments (Preferences, Interests, and Skills). If you are missing a check mark, or you have a red check mark, you are missing a Career Self-Assessment.
Students may use this link to jump directly to the Career Self-Assessments in their HSBP portfolio: http://bit.ly/HSBPInterests.
Each Career Self-Assessment only need to be taken ONE time.
Step-by-step directions for completing Career Self-Assessments:
BONUS: Start a Résumé - Personal Details, Skills, and Education Experience
A résumé is a good way to introduce yourself. You will usually need one if you are applying for a job, an internship, or scholarship, and one may be needed for a college application. A résumé summarizes who you are including, but not limited to your experience, what you can do, and your unique skills, talents, and leadership and/or athletic abilities. A students' High School & Beyond Plan must include a completed résumé by the end of 12th Grade.
To have a completed HSBP résumé, students will need to include the following sections in their résumé:
