High School & Beyond Plan

The High School and Beyond Plan (HSBP) is a Washington State graduation requirement. Beginning in 7th grade, students create and update their HSBP on SchooLinks, the state's universal HSBP and career-readiness platform. Through the HSBP process, students use SchooLinks to explore their interests, learn about career and pathway possibilities, and create a plan to prepare them for their post-high school goals. In cooperation with family and school staff, students update their plan each year to reflect changing interests, skills, and goals.

The HSBP focuses on three questions, each aligned with a career-readiness area:

  1. Discovery: Who Am I?
  2. Exploration: What Can I Become?
  3. Preparation: How Do I Become That?
