What Are Your Child's Post High School Plans?

Every high school student counts down the days until graduation, when they throw their caps in the air and say goodbye to the days of hall passes and remembering locker combinations. 

For others, graduation day brings about another issue: what do I do now? 

In an effort to avoid the graduation day panic attack and help students get ahead on planning their post high school future, North Kingstown High School is holding its 6th Annual Post High School Planning Night on March 27 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the NKHS gym.

High school students of all ages – from freshmen to seniors – are welcome to attend this large scale "fair" that includes more than 50 colleges, military branches, an NCAA compliance officers, vocational outlets and community professionals.

WayToGoRI will also be on hand this year to help parents learn how to use their free web-based program to develop their student's individualized learning program (ILP).

The event also serves as the "official kick-off" for junior students and parents to begin the college application journey. NKHS guidance counselors will start the evening with a presentation about where students should be and what steps they should take in the next six months to prepare for the college application process.
