College Planning
In responding to parental input asking for more information on how to go about preparing for college, NCCS will be holding its second college night on Tuesday, 17 February. We will have a representative from Ridgewater who will spend some time on all of the things to think about and act on while juniors and seniors in high school. In addition, there will be information on PSEO presented. This is designed to help students understand what PSEO has been created to do and how to plan collaboratively with NCCS advisors so that this experience enhances the overall secondary educational experience. There is a 30 March deadline for participation in PSEO. By this date, PSEO participants for the 09-10 school year need to inform the secondary school of their desire to participate. Since PSEO is a cost to the district, this deadline has been imposed by the state to assist districts in budgeting for the upcoming school year. Parents of all sophomores and juniors please plan on attending this information session.
