Peak Discovery Goals

lifestyle

Peak Discovery Description
Peak Discovery is a short and direct wake-up call in a compact
15 to 20 hour Course. It presents the reality of the adult world
by guiding students to discover the path to a reasonable lifestyle.
They’ll create a detailed budget for all the major expenses
in a normal life, take a quick survey to identify their preferred
job and career options, compare the earning power of those jobs
to their lifestyle budget, and discover how their education and
personal choices will qualify them for those jobs.
The messages are, “Your choices create your future. In that
future, education, work, money, and lifestyle are all connected
– and you decide.” Peak Discovery is ideal for in-school
suspension, expanding curriculum for life skills and consumer math,
detention programs, and situations where students can benefit from
additional commitment to learning.
