CONCURRENT for NEXT YEAR'S Seniors
If you are still thinking about taking Concurrent classes and have not met with your counselor yet, please read below.
Please go to CANVAS to the Junior Counseling Corner
.WATCH the video that explains everything you need to know.
Print out the EMHS Concurrent Agreement Form (or pick one up in the counseling office) and get it signed by a parent.
That form needs to be returned to your counselor ASAP.
In the meantime, you need to:
* apply to the concurrent college/university of your choice. This is done on the college/university website.
* go to the Request Transcript tab on the Junior Counseling Corner in CANVAS and request to have your high school transcript sent to your concurrent college/university.
Once your counselor receives the signed agreement form from you, they will meet with the student to discuss the details.
Seniors
Graduation is almost here! ALL Seniors need to have completed these items ASAP:
- Register their Parchment account (If they haven't yet). This will be how students will request that their final transcripts be sent to colleges or trade schools for the summer/fa, and even send to some employers. Even if students are planning on taking a gap year, PLEASE make sure they've set up their account. For convenience, a registration link was sent to their school email address. This will prefill most of the student/school information. Students just need to be sure to change the email from their school email to a personal email. (to make resetting passwords easier after they graduate and no longer have access to their edmondschools.net email address.) If they have any issues/ questions, please contact Melanie Bailey in the Counseling Office
