Senior Launch Guide
The counseling team visited ALL seniors in their English classes on August 26th. We want to make sure our 12th grade students are well-equipped with resources to support their Education and Career Action Plan. All materials that were shared in the presentations are included in the Cohort 2022 Google Classroom.
The Senior Launch Guide includes a wealth of information about career exploration, FAFSA help, scholarship and job tips, selecting and applying for colleges, and more.
Each senior has access to a digital copy of the Launch Guide, however, we have a limited number of physical copies in the counseling office and College and Career Center. If a senior wants a copy, please stop by to pick one up while supplies last.
