College Exploration in middle school? YES! 

For middle school students, it is a very important time to begin to think about future plans, know how to make long and short-term goals and understand the connection between their own actions and positive results - hard work and commitment pays off in good grades and opportunity.  Here is a Great Guide  for parents of middle school students who may want to learn more about what college and career readiness in middle school looks like. 

 

College and Career planning starts in 9th Grade!

High school is a time for students to focus academically, challenge themselves and build a resume that showcases who they are and where their strengths lie. College planning starts in 9th grade. Students and families must be aware of the long term impact Grade Point Averages (GPAs), Advanced Placement Courses and Exams like the SATs play on college admission and access to financial aid and scholarships.  The more information students and families have, the better they are at making informed decisions and planning for the future
