If you have any questions or would like to schedule a specific appointment time with your counselor, please email your counselor or stop in at the Guidance Office and speak with Mrs. Vail.
Working papers can be obtained through the school district in which you reside.
Mrs. Vail keeps an updated list of scholarships for seniors in Naviance Family Connection. Click on the colleges tab. Scroll to scholarships & money, then click on scholarship list. Most of them are local scholarships.
All transcript requests and teacher recommendation requests must be submitted through Naviance.
SAT scores must be sent to colleges through your College Board account, and ACT scores must be sent through your ACT Student account.
If you’re not in the habit of checking your email daily, you should start doing so this year. Colleges and your school counselor will be sending emails with important information about your college and scholarship applications on a regular basis.

Sophomore year is the perfect time to begin exploring what careers you may be interested in after high school.
Naviance is an excellent resource for finding information on colleges and careers.

Seniors are responsible for their college applications; please do not create any student accounts for your child or use your email address to create a Common App, College Board, or ACT account for your child. Doing so can impede the process of submitting transcripts and recommendation letters to colleges through Naviance and may delay your child’s college applications.
College Admissions Visits
If you are a college admissions representative who wishes to schedule a visit, you may do so through RepVisits. We keep our calendar open year-round.
