Parents……. FCHS School counselors and the College & Career Center Specialist are always available to answer your questions and provide support! This is a team effort!

Important advice we share with your kids… Choose what’s important to you, not your friends. Try to visit campus while schools are in session. Attend College Info Sessions FCHS While it’s great to go where all your friends are going this is your education and your future depends on your choices.

Additional Advice……. Secure teacher, coach, and employer letters of recommendation early Keep your grades up!! If you have recently become a US Citizen, please update your status with the Social Security Administration

Recommendations Did you know? 1.Some colleges only want a letter of recommendation from a counselor 2.Some ask for a teacher and a counselor recommendation. 3.And there are even a few that don’t ask for one at all! Things to Confirm 1.Do I need a recommendation? (research the college admission page) 2.Who will I ask to write my letters of recommendation? Please give Teachers/Counselors 2-3 weeks to complete recommendations!!
