Preparation for life after high school can feel many different ways. For those who prepare slowly over time, starting as early as sophomore year, it can feel manageable, much like a marathon for a runner who completed a well thought out training program. Conversely, it can feel like an insurmountable task, where one is always playing catch up, much like an ill prepared runner who feels like they are going to pass out after the first mile. Let CHS Guidance make this a record breaking, easy marathon of post-secondary planning; but, we are going to need your family's participation along the way.
While we have been busy getting to know our freshmen students, addressing all of our seniors' college questions, and helping all students with schedules, we have also been planning some amazing things for the month of October.
Tuesday, October 3rd: Post-Secondary Planning Night. 6 pm at Canton High School. We are having one HUGE night event with everything college related. While parents are attending a variety of workshops, students have the option to take a bus for $15.00 with guidance counselors to the TEC College Fair in Waltham. Bus leaves at 5:30 and returns at 8:15ish. Register at myschoolbucks.com. Here is a link to all of the colleges which will be at the fair thus far. More colleges are added daily.
Wednesday, October 11th: Juniors take the PSAT while sophomores take the Pre-ACT. Cost is $20. Pay at myschoolbucks.com or bring a check to Anne Murray in guidance. Once you register, you can also pick-up a review guide for the PSAT in guidance.
