Guideline:

Adolescence is a journey of transitions through early, middle, and late stages. Through each stage, the adolescent deals with aspects of physical, cognitive, and social-emotional development. Possessing an awareness of these transitions enables educators to assist adolescent students with navigating these transitions to life after high school school.
