Juniors need to begin thinking about college choices! There are some great web sites that can help you narrow down your choices and find a school that is a perfect fit for you! See the college and career section on this web site. |
|
Juniors are encouraged to visit college campuses this year. A great way to “get a feel” for a college is to visit. Ms. Copeland will be glad to assist you in setting up a visit through the admissions office. |
|
Be prepared to begin applying to the colleges of your choice at the beginning of your senior year. Colleges are much more competitive than in the past. An early application can make a difference! |
|
All Juniors and Seniors are encouraged to attend the Ed-Op program at Colleton County High School in October. The purpose of Ed-Op is to provide an opportunity for high school juniors and seniors to be exposed to the many types of post-secondary educational opportunities. Look for new information soon! |

Federal law requires all men living in the US to register within a month of their 18th birthday for the Selective Service. Registering keeps you eligible for college loans, government jobs, and driver's license renewals in most states.
