OnTrack is an online college and career readiness curriculum designed to help students, parents, counselors, educators, and after-school program staff successfully navigate the post-secondary education attainment process.
Through grade-specific video modules, OnTrack provides 9th-12th grade students with the knowledge and confidence to complete their high school experience and create a viable post-secondary education plan.
Using OnTrack’s curriculum, students are better prepared to navigate high school, understand the post-secondary application process, gain acceptance to an institution of their choice, and receive financial aid to support their attendance.
Curriculum for Educators
OnTrack’s monitoring tools enables educators to track the progress of your students, send them individual or group alerts, and generate reports to see at-a-glance how students are advancing in the program. Students are mentored by OnTrack Advisors on financial aid, creating a post-secondary list, admissions testing, financial literacy, job preparation, character development, as well as college applications. By having a working understanding of those topics, students are more focused and informed when meeting with you on their post-secondary decisions.
