Career & College Center
About
The importance of post-secondary education has increased significantly and having marketable skills and some type of preparation is pivotal to your success. Future economic stability and career opportunities are driven by the careful action plans that begin early on in high school.
Victoria Independent School District, in partnership with Victoria College, is committed to the individual success of all our students and their post-graduation plans. Victoria East and Victoria West both have a Career & College Center to assist with these plans. Our center is eager to provide help with both academic and non-academic pathways through a variety of services.
