The four years in high school moves quickly. Parents must begin planning as soon as possible for life after graduation.
Time flies when watching your children grow up. One day they are in diapers and the next day they are in cap and gown. Parents must begin planning for life after high school as soon as possible. Here are some planning tips:
Do an assessment of your child's talents and abilities. This will help direct them to the right academic or skilled trades programs.
Make sure your children are enrolled in the right high school to support their interests, talents, and abilities. The right school will have partnerships with colleges and universities to get your children accepted.
Have your children participate in extra-curricular activities. This proves your children are socially prepared for education on a large scale.
Get your children on track for life after high school by the 11th grade. By this time, applications, test scores, transcripts and other documents for college acceptance should be acquired.
Look for scholarships early. You don't have to pay for everything. Their are people and organizations willing to help.
