What is a Dekaney CCC Ambassador?
A Dekaney CCC Ambassador is a student chosen to represent the Dekaney High CCC to other seniors and their families throughout the college admissions process. CCC ambassadors act as a liaison between the school staff and current student body.
As a CCC Ambassador, they are the student face of the Dekaney High CCC and as part of this role, they relay information about the college admissions application experience to other seniors starting the process or actively working within the process. They are also highly influential in decisions that have a big impact on how Dekaney CCC activities and services are rolled out and implemented. Ambassadors provide leadership in assisting fellow classmates to meet crucial deadlines that will impact, ultimately, admissions decisions to colleges and universities or winning competitive scholarship awards.
