Naviance at West Seattle High School

Every year, WSHS students will complete several tasks through Naviance as part of their High School and Beyond Plan. These tasks include career and personality assessments, researching colleges, career exploration tools, and resume building. 

Students login to Naviance through Clever the student portal

Naviance is a great tool to create your post-high school plans. Your school counselors will have access to your results such as the careers and colleges you are interested in, and they will use your information to find resources and opportunities to help you towards your goals. For example, juniors will choose colleges they are interested in and your counselors will invite those admissions reps to WSHS for you all to meet.

Please be sure to visit your counselor’s Schoology page to learn more about your High School and Beyond Plan. 

If you have questions about this online tool or want to learn about the benefits of it, please visit the district website
