College & Career Rep Visits

College/Career Representatives Coming to CCHS

College and Career representatives will be available throughout the year for Focus Period presentations and/or lunch period visits at tables in the hallway. Students are encouraged to sign up to hear from multiple representatives to get a feel for different offerings and aspects of schools.

Please visit this list weekly as we update our visits regularly! Students can see and sign up for Focus Period rep visits through the Focus Period App, and lunch visits will be listed in student announcements.
