Major Clarity is a career readiness program which can help you choose the best career paths based on your academic accomplishments and feedback you provide through short assessments. It is different from other programs you may find online because it’s connected to PowerSchool, so it can use the courses you successfully completed during middle and high school to give you more accurate career paths. You can find up-to-date information on all levels of college, military and some apprenticeships including where the jobs are and how much income you could make.

Logging into Major Clarity

OPTION 1: Use your Clever log-in.

OPTION 2: Use your school email and the password described below. (This password is different than your PowerSchool/Canvas one)

PW: First four characters of your last name followed by your student ID number

For example, Marcus Johnson with ID number 999123 would be: john999123

*Characters are all lower-case.

*If your last name is shorter than four letters, add the number “0” to the end of your PW until it becomes 8 characters long. (Ex. Last name Hu with student number 1234 becomes hu123400).

*As of January 2021, accounts are currently set up for students in grades 7 -11.

*If you have trouble accessing your account, contact your School Counselor for help.

Getting Started

After logging in, choose “Assessments” on the left side. Complete the Personality Assessment and the Learning Styles Assessment. Answer honestly; this only helps you! Once you finish, watch this video on Career Exploration and visit that section in Major Clarity. This is where all the awesomeness is!

FEV Tutoring

Fredericksburg City Schools is pleased to partner with FEV Tutor to provide your students with high-quality, district-sponsored, live, one-to-one virtual tutoring and homework help!

Why FEV Tutor?

FEV Tutor takes a creative approach to deliver students the one to-one support they need to grow academically. Students work with their own professional tutor on an engaging web-based platform accessible from any computer with an internet connection.

Leaders at Fredericksburg City Schools have worked directly with FEV Tutor to personalize targeted tutoring and homework help for each student. During each tutoring session, students can receive personalized support to bridge skill gaps and drive academic growth.

What will tutoring look like for students?

Students will work with tutors based on their own unique needs to master grade-level learning standards. Students will work with their tutor using a synchronous two-way whiteboard with various learning style options.

What are students saying about FEV Tutoring?

"It was a very good learning experience and very fun."

"It was great and enjoyable!"
