Teacher advisory systems are similar to adult advocate systems; they organize adults to personalize the high school experience and support academic achievement, working with small groups of students. Some schools and districts establish advisory classes that meet weekly; others schedule students for less formal one-on-one or group time with teachers. Advisory activities may include helping students develop personal learning plans, introducing students to career clusters, helping students select courses, and working with students on postsecondary plans and pre-employment skills.

Southridge High School's Web site provides information about the school's advisory program.
