It is open to all grade levels and the community. The evening will include program tours, and opportunity to meet with admission counselors. See Mrs. Croker in Guidance for more details.
The Guidance Office will do everything possible to assist you in meeting the deadlines for college applications, scholarship applications and transcript requests. Please note that all requests are handled in a timely fashion. It is imperative that our office is notified well in advance in order to help meet your deadlines. Best practice is to give your counselor and/ or teachers at least a 2 weeks notice for a recommendation letter or scholarship application request. A brief resume should be submitted for a recommendation letter. Scheduling an appointment will ensure that all the necessary paperwork is completed in time. Last minute transcript requests may require that the student and or parent overnight an official transcript.
