Middle schools responsible for Career Exploration High schools responsible for Career Exploration and Planning By the 2009-2010 school year, the teacher evaluation system established in Chapter 26, Title 59 …. must include a review of performance in career exploration and guidance. (In other words, you will be evaluated on your performance in career exploration and guidance as a part of your ADEPT evaluations.)

    3. How is the EEDA implemented at the middle school level? Information on career clusters must be provided to 6th,7th and 8th grade students.
