Valencia High School is particularly proud of its exceptional School-to-Career program. Through this program, all students, with the exception of severely handicapped students, are guided through a four-year process that illustrates the strong connection between education and future career options. Students are given the opportunity to develop a heightened awareness of their own individual strengths and interests, what options are available to them, what they need to do to plan for their future, and assistance in making the transition into post-high school life. The program also provides students with job shadowing, internship, and Career Path opportunities, further strengthening the connection between school and the world of work. The Career Path component of the School-to-Career program offers students 18 career pathways which lead to students in their chosen career path.
