Summer College Prep Offerings - CLASS OF 2024!

The College and Career Center is excited to be offering a variety of summer college workshops to assist in getting our rising seniors ready and prepared for the college application season. The link to our Junior Guidebook that was handed out at our college symposium earlier this spring is on the CC Guidance Website. It has many helpful resources and information.
