WEGO counselors are available to support you and your families through the post-high school planning process. This website is a compilation of resources to help students create a post-secondary plan. Counselors are happy to meet with students to provide resources that will support students' exploration and research. Students simply need to fill out a blue appointment slip in Counseling Office or email their counselor directly. We are looking forward to partnering with you as you explore future options. If you have questions about these resources or need more information, please reach out to your student's counselor.
You have many options for life after high school.
