ASVAB
Your son or daughter's decision to enter college, technical or vocational school, military service, or straight to work is an important one. The ASVAB Career Exploration Program can help. The ASVAB produces three Career Exploration Scores for Verbal Skills, Math Skills, and Science and Technical Skills. These scores serve as information about your child that can aid in the exploration of a wide variety of career options. Every student who take the ASVAB will receive a Career Exploration Guide, which includes career information to almost 400 occupations.
EHS will be offering the ASVAB to our current 10-12 students on February 7th. The ASVAB is FREE, and you do not have enlist in the Military to take it. If you are interested in your student taking the exam, click on the following link
