CPEC
College, Career, and Life Readiness
Which "E" will you choose?
Enroll, Employ, or Enlist
My goal is to support students in discovering their "E"—whether that is Enrolling in college, Employing their skills in a career, or Enlisting in the military.
I will expose students by inviting reps to visit the CPEC campus and hosting various CCLR events.
This will allow students to make informed decisions before graduation.
