To further help our students
develop their post-high school goals, the College/Career
Center Coordinator and College/Career Center (located
in the Main Hall) provide invaluable information about
colleges, careers, scholarships and financial aid. College
and vocational bulletins , videos, testing information,
GPA verification forms, college and scholarship application
forms, electronic application forms and computer college
search programs are just a few of the useful materials
found in the College/Career Center. Numerous college,
career and military representatives make presentations
to interested students throughout the year. Students must
sign up in advance in the College/Career Center. Parents
are also welcome to attend. Dates and times are listed
in the daily
bulletins , "Guidelines", "Career
Tracks" which is published monthly and distributed
in junior and senior English classes and on Naviance.
