College & Career Center

  • THANK YOU FOR VISITING THE COLLEGE & CAREER CENTER!

    The goal of the College & Career Center is to provide students with information and resources to assist them with planning their future after high school. Whether a student chooses to attend a four-year college/university, a state college, a technical college, or enter the workforce, this site will include helpful resources.

    The College and Career Center supports students and families to access resources, explore opportunities and work collaboratively on:

    • Career pathways
    • College exploration and applications
    • College Fair and Career Fair
    • SAT/ACT testing
    • FAFSA and Financial aid
    • Scholarships

    Students should visit the College & Career Center early and often throughout their high school career, as waiting until senior year to start investigating post-secondary options can be extremely stressful! Students can seek assistance and support in post-secondary exploration and planning based on their individual ambitions, goals, talents and dreams. 

    Please contact Mrs. Divietro in room 438 to answer any questions you might have.
