Time to Plan for Early Colleges!
Applications: October-December (dates coming soon!)
Ready, Set...Apply!
It's that time of year where planning begins for application schools such as the early colleges and leadership academies. All of these schools allow students to earn college credits while completing high school requirements. Information will be shared via: Daily announcements, the Student Services weebly, the Counselors' Remind, principal messages, the high school bulletin board in the pod area, and directly from the counselors to students. Please tune in to as many of these as you can and encourage your child to do the same! Early college and leadership academy applications are due between November 3-30. Notifications are on February 19th.
