Life after graduation will vary depending on the student and their calling in life, but we want to help each student the best we can. Please know that many other options are available to High School graduates. We will continue to pray for each student and their next steps.<\/p>\n
If you have any questions, concerns, or just need to talk and discuss the many opportunities for our seniors after high school, Mrs. Jackson would love to meet with the Seniors and their families. Due to the pandemic, we can do a call OR in-person meeting with mask and social distancing. Ultimately, we want to help in any and every way possible. Please email Mrs. Jackson individually to schedule a time that works best.<\/p>\n

Trade or vocational programs offer a direct path toward specific jobs. Students who struggle in school may prefer this type of hands-on learning. There are programs in a wide range of areas, including things like web design, electronics, and medical assistance. Many colleges also offer certificate programs. Programs tend to provide more supervision, to help students keep up with their work. Many also offer internships or apprenticeships that help students move into the workforce.<\/p>\n

Some teens don\u2019t feel ready for college directly after high school. One option for them is a \u201cgap year.\u201d A gap year is becoming more common among American students. And many colleges will now allow students to defer enrollment for a year. Many students spend their gap year exploring interests through internships, volunteer experiences, a job or travel.<\/p>\n

If more schooling isn\u2019t right for your teen, going straight to work can be a rewarding path. Family members and friends may know of jobs that would suit your child, too. As your child learns solid work skills, they become more independent and may discover a career path that leads them to further training.<\/p>\n
Work experience and internships offer a great start to choosing the right path.<\/p>\n

A two-year college may be a great option for your child if they are unsure about their career path or are not ready for a four-year college. These programs give options to move on to a four-year school. Or they can strengthen her skills and prepare her for a career with a two-year degree.<\/p>\n
Two-year colleges may offer tutoring and training to help students move into adult life. They can help your child build time management and study skills and get used to college life while still living at home.<\/p>\n

Please request this transcript at the link below:<\/p>\n https:\/\/truett.edu\/academics\/academic-transcripts\/<\/a><\/p>\n You will also need to complete your FAFSA Application (https:\/\/studentaid.ed.gov\/sa\/fafsa<\/a>) and have it sent to your desired schools. Your parent\u2019s tax information will be required for this application.<\/p>\n Your FAFSA application will serve as the scholarship application for HOPE and Zell Miller. However, scholarship opportunities are endless.<\/p>\n First, check with the specific college you have applied for scholarship opportunities devoted to their students.<\/p>\n Second, begin to look for local scholarships.
