Schedule Changes
-
Parents of SENIORS – Post-secondary planning appointments will begin on September 1, 2024. Seniors should secure an appointment with their counselor by stopping in the Counseling Office in between classes, at lunch, or before or after school.
Initial appointments for post-secondary planning typically require 30 minutes of time. We ask students to minimize time out of class for counseling appointments. Best practice is to schedule appointments with counselors during lunch, before/after school, or during elective course time. Parents/Guardians are encouraged to participate in these post-secondary planning appointments.
The college application process will be discussed in detail with seniors in individual and group meetings. Information and tutorial videos will post weekly on your student’s counselor Canvas course. Please encourage your senior to stay informed and be mindful of application deadlines. The Common Application is now open for 2025-26: www.commonapp.org
