After high school, what’s next?
ASPIRE is the State of
Oregon’s official mentoring
program to help students
access
education
and
training beyond high school.
ASPIRE is only in Oregon,
and Ridgeview High School
is fortunate to be one of the
ASPIRE sites out of over 200
high schools state wide
offering this program.
ASPIRE is the ACRONYM
for:
A • Access to
S • Student Assistance
P • Programs
I
• In
R • Reach of
E • Everyone
Students that are enrolled in the ASPIRE program are matched
with a volunteer from our community. This volunteer, called an
Advisor or Mentor will assist with postsecondary options,
meaning “What will I do after graduation from high school?”.
Your advisor will help you with:
Career Options: What profession is right for me?
College Searches: Which school is a good fit for me?
College Application Process: Where do I start?
Ways to Pay for Your Education: College is expensive-how can
I afford it?
Scholarships: How do I find scholarships and how do I apply?
College Alternatives: I don’t even want to go to College.
What choices are there for me?
