Sophomore CCR meetings
Sophomores, it's time to schedule your meeting with your counselor for a CCR meeting. During your College and Career Readiness (CCR) meeting, we will review important topics to help you plan for the future. This includes exploring career interests, discussing future college and scholarship opportunities, and making sure you are on track with course planning and selection for next school year. These meetings are a great opportunity to check in on progress and ensure you're prepared for the years ahead.
Sophomore CCR meetings will run November 2-December 11.
