Beginning November 2, 2020, the SCCPSS School Counseling Department will recognize Post-Secondary Options Month. Post-Secondary Options Month is designed to expose our students to the various 2 and 4 year college, technical school, certificate, military, and workforce opportunities available to them. Students will also have the opportunity to receive assistance in completing the applications associated with the option(s) of their choice. This year, we will host virtual awareness and assistance events November 2, 2020 through November 13, 2020. Attendance will be taken daily and provided to each school. Students are responsible for making up any missed assignments.
