In lieu of Senior Conferences this year, in an effort to get seniors information regarding the college admissions season, counselors will be holding small, Senior Info Sessions to go over the most important pieces of college applications, scholarships, financial aid, etc…

These Senior Info Sessions will take place over three days next week, September 27th, 28th and 29th and will be split up by last name, alpha ranges. Below you will find that alpha range breakdown. We ask that any seniors who normally flex and/or take their CCP courses from home during their scheduled time, please come into the building that day and report to the auditorium. It is important that all seniors hear the information shared during these sessions and an announcement will be made for when students should come down at their scheduled times.

**Note: These are updated from the original dates and are the most recent for students to follow.**
