Resources for Parents
Greetings TISA Parents!
Thank you for supporting your student's University Application Process. On this page I will answer parent questions and provide information and links that parents may need to access. Slide shows of parent presentations are also to be found here. Please note that the information on this site will grow and change as I add resources. As a starting place, see the red buttons below for quick links to specific information.
The TISA Counseling office also has an open door policy. Please reach out via email (www.counselor@tisa.az) to schedule an appointment or stop by my office and see if I am available. I am also working to put out a newsletter a few times per year with information and latest trends in the University Application Process. Here are the links to the newsletters to date:
