Our goal in the upper school is to assist all students in achieving their college and career goals.  We believe that the college planning process begins as soon as students enter upper school.  Through classroom guidance, individual meetings, and evening informational sessions, our Guidance Office is here to support students and families throughout the high school years.

College guidance at Caravel starts at the beginning of 9th grade, when students are introduced to the concept of their transcript, grade point average, and general college admissions information.  In 10th grade, students spend a week of classroom guidance with the counselor focusing on college and career planning.  A series of scheduled individual college planning conferences in the Guidance Office begin in the winter of 11th grade and continue through the fall of students’ senior year.

Caravel Academy graduates are well prepared for college.  Typically, 100% of graduating students attend four year colleges ranging from small liberal arts colleges to large universities across the country.  We believe that the planning process should be an enriching family experience that will lead to finding a college environment where your child can flourish.

We encourage you to contact our office any time you have questions or if you would like to set up a meeting.
