Weekly College Planning Classes
Interview Day is a spring tradition enjoyed by seniors which enables them to turn the tables and conduct mock interviews with juniors. Seniors pull from their own college interview experiences to create a realistic interview process for juniors as they embark on the college interview phase of their application process.
Standardized Testing
A mock ACT is given each spring to offer practice with lengthy standardized tests as well as a baseline to use when making testing decisions.
