Career Exploration: EDPs & Xello

Dear Parents and Guardians,

XELLO is an engaging online program that helps students build the skills, knowledge and plans to be future ready. The program uses an investigative, discovery-based learning process. Students better understand themselves, their future career options, and the 21st century skills they’ll need to succeed.

Beginning in 6th grade and continuing through senior year, with XELLO your child will:

  1. Build Self-knowledge - Define their interests, skills, preferences, and aspirations so they can explore the opportunities right for them.

  2. Explore Options - Learn about career possibilities and educational pathways by exploring rich, engaging content and lessons.

  3. Create a Plan - Your child can create dynamic actionable plans that outline the steps needed to achieve school, career, and life goals.

  4. Learn & Reassess - Interactive lessons help your child develop age appropriate skills and knowledge for success in school and beyond.

You’re encouraged to explore XELLO with your child by logging in together at www.Xello.World. Your child can log in to his or her account via desktop or mobile device to share what they’ve learned about themselves, the world of work, and their future options.

We take data protection and privacy very seriously. The program complies with safety and security outlined in the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). That means advertising is not displayed within XELLO, nor is data used for commercial purposes. XELLO is also a signatory of the Student Privacy Pledge, requiring them to uphold strict standards for safeguarding student privacy regarding the collection, maintenance, and use of student personal information.

If you have any questions about XELLO, or the EDP process, please contact Crystal Nusbaum, our Career Development Facilitator/Online Learning Facilitator at cnusbaum@KearsleySchools.org or 810-591-5317.

Sincerely,
