On Tuesday, October 4th, I will be presenting information about the High School application process at the 8th grade parent meeting. I wanted to share with you the power point presentation that I will be working from, in the event that you are unable to attend the meeting. cps.edu/AccessAndEnrollment/Documents/HighSchoolApplicationProcess.pdf. One important change to note for the 2016-2017 application year, is that there is no November testing date available, so there will not be the opportunity for students to know their entrance exam scores prior to the application deadline ending.
Additionally, I met with the 8th grade students this week to answer any burning questions or concerns about the application process and get a sense of which schools they are planning on applying to. We will continue to meet as a group weekly during their advisory to discuss the high school options available to them.
I will also begin to meet with students individually to go over their scores from 7th grade and look at the specific schools they are currently interested in applying to.
I am happy to meet with parents individually about the High School application process if you have any questions specific to your child.
