Senior year while we always working on the previous years work we also utilize these skills by filling out college applications, writing essays for class as well as for applications and scholarships, FAFSA, interview skills for colleges and scholarships, and life skills.
Senior year the students work on college applications and scholarships, as well as, real life after college planning, by working on life management skills. We do this through stress management and self care, working on budgeting and real life situations and costs, and looking at career paths through job shadowing and internship opportunities. This is all done after students have submitted college applications and they find the right fit for them, and their scholarship search and applications will continue all year.
