post-secondary planning
|
The Counseling Department subscribes to the belief that the post-secondary planning process is a "TEAM" effort. As the student, you are the captain of the team, and your parents, teachers, and counselor are integral players on your team. You are responsible for leading your team toward its goal of developing and implementing a post-secondary plan that will lead you toward a happy and successful life.
