HIGH SCHOOL PLANNING & PROGRESS

Take some time to really think about your post-secondary options. Why do you want to go to college? What do you want to study?  What career would be best for you?  What are the benefits of vocational, technical and college?

 

Stay focused on being organized & getting the best grades you can. If you need help, talk to your teacher & counselor, join school clubs, try out for sports, do volunteer work in the community, keep track of volunteer hours.

 

Evaluate your high school plan, class, and credit to make sure you are on track for graduation.

 

Connect with your counselor often.
