🌟"What's the SCoPE?"🌟 ⚡️We have officially hit 'SCoPE' season at RLHS! Student Counselor Parent Engagement meetings are the key building blocks of our Academic and Career Planning program at the high school level.⚡️ 🏆For the first four months of the school year, we meet with each student at every grade level starting with the 12th graders. Parents are highly encouraged to attend these meetings with their student.🏆 🧩Data collected from individual ACP meetings in 8th grade ignites the process. From there, the development of an individualized 4-YEAR plan in high school through yearly SCoPE meetings defines the pathway, and prepares our young adults for their post-secondary plans. High schoolers are provided the tools to KNOW (9th), EXPLORE (10th), PLAN (11th), and GO (12th).🧩 ♟️Over the course of 4 years of SCoPE meetings, elective course recommendations, youth apprenticeship opportunities, FAFSA + scholarship information, and job shadow options are just a few of the things we share with families to assure each student is provided with the #RLAdvantage prior to graduation.♟️ 👍See you at your SCoPE meeting!👍 #SchoolCounselor #AcademicCareerPlanning #Relationships #Pathways #Goals

How do AP classes and credits work for college? AP classes, or advancement placement classes, are college-level classes taken in high school. The idea behind these classes is to earn college credit so you would need to take fewer credits when in college. It is best to determine if the AP classes are accepted by a college you apply to.  Please let me know if there are any questions you would like to see me address.  

The first-year experience (FYE) is crucial for student retention and long-term success. Students entering higher education face numerous academic and social challenges, and without the proper support, many struggle to transition smoothly. Institutions that invest in structured FYE programs see higher retention rates and more engaged learners. These programs, when effectively designed, provide students with the tools to navigate college life, develop critical skills, and foster a sense of belonging. As you look to build enrollment and retain students designing FYE courses and programs that offer the right mix of academic rigor, support services, and engagement activities is a key component. #highereducation #firstyearexperience #studentsuccess

Thank you for the mention! I had a fantastic time at the session. Here are a few reflections: 1. Entrepreneurial thinking is often overhyped. Instead of focusing solely on entrepreneurial skills, let’s prioritize thinking well. Skills like creativity and problem-solving aren't just for entrepreneurs—they're essential traits of successful professionals in any field. 2. In the fast-evolving world of AI, consider careers that harness our uniquely human qualities. The true value of our actions lies in our fallibility—the very potential to make mistakes adds meaning to each good decision we make. This is a quality that AI, no matter how advanced, simply can’t replicate.
