College and Career Planning
Visiting Colleges
Juniors are permitted 1 day during the school year to visit college campuses. Additionally, Seniors are permitted 2 days to visit college campuses. Students planning to attend a campus visit should notify teachers prior to the visit to gather any work they may miss while out. Parents/Guardians must also notify the attendance office of the date of the planned visit. The absence will be counted as a college visit when the student presents a letter to the attendance office from the college on the college's letterhead confirming the date the student was on a campus visit. These college visits do NOT count against students for final exam exemption purposes.

Through the School to Career Center, students can get help exploring post-high school pathways available following graduation.
These pathways include: universities, 2-year colleges, technical school, apprenticeships, military and work options.
