SCOIR is our new college portal and we are super excited to share all of its wonderful features with CCS parents and students. This outstanding program will assist students in managing their college searches and applications, ordering transcripts, requesting teacher recommendations, creating resumes, and completing personality/career inventories. Parent accounts, linked to student accounts, will allow parents to oversee their student's information, as well as complete separate searches and add colleges to their student's portal.
This outstanding program will be rolling out this month with more information on training sessions coming soon. In the meantime, learn more about SCOIR
here (parents) and
here (students). An account has already been created for you so you do not need to create one on your own.

TRAVELING SPRING BREAK? ADD A COLLEGE VISIT TO THE AGENDA!
Spring Break is a wonderful time to visit different colleges while you are traveling on vacation. Use SCOIR to map out colleges on your route and schedule campus tours. Many colleges will even allow you to attend a class if you ask in advance. If you are unable to attend an official tour, walking around the campus may give you a feel for the culture and help you determine if a more in-depth visit is something to consider. Please share your college visit pictures with Mrs. Daniels when you get back.
