Go Beyond Boundaries: Live Courageously
Our College and Career Counseling Center is ready to help students take their next step after graduation. Counselors help students with appropriate course selections for graduation, finding scholarships for college, as well as guide students through the college selection process.
The counseling department hosts college planning workshops, conducts class presentations that take students through career interest inventories, and schedules individual student meetings beginning in the student’s freshman year. All high school students have an Naviance account, which is a web-based college and career planning platform to create college lists and search for careers.
