Instructions to schedule a PCCR
Making a plan early in your educational career is extremely beneficial because it allows you to take advantage of opportunities during high school. By making the most of your high school experiences you are setting yourself up with many options (high school programs, scholarships, college admittance, etc) for after high school. There are many great opportunities available to students for college, career, and scholarships. Many programs, scholarships, and colleges require courses to be taken and passed with a certain GPA to be eligible. Knowing these things before signing up for your high school courses can mean the difference between getting into a program or college, being awarded a scholarship, or NOT. The PCCR process will help with this process. Below you will find a variety of resources that will help with this process.
