Berkner High School College and Career Center (CCC) provides various college and career planning resources. The CCC is a place where students can discover junior colleges and four-year universities, get information about SAT/ACT testing & prep, discuss military options, career readiness, and assistance with financial aid & scholarships.
A senior's post-secondary path is a partnership between students, parents, counselors, and the college coordinator. Communication is key and we encourage parental support that empowers students to take ownership of the college and career planning process. While we support all students, the majority of individual appointments are scheduled mainly for seniors and secondarily for juniors. Senior appointments will begin in September and continue into the spring semester, and junior appointments will begin in early April.
Students who find the greatest success in the college and career planning process are those who stay on top of deadlines, ask for help, and most importantly do not wait until the last minute to get started!
Here to Help! The College & Career Center is here to help. Students, please don't hesitate to reach out. There are a lot of moving parts when it comes to the college application process.
You are in control of your future! Students should understand that finding the college or career that “best fits” them is in their hands. Research what career path interests you and the required steps to get there. Also, keep up with your deadlines! We may send reminders but at the end of the day, you must be responsible and hold yourself accountable.
Be yourself! The college application process is about you, the student. We want to ensure we find the "Best Fit" for you. This process is supposed to be fun and stressful at times, but it will all be worth it in the end!
