Dear Student,

(CCHS Junior Packet 2013-2014)

Dear Student,

Congratulations, you are on your way!! By becoming a JUNIOR, you are now an UPPERCLASSMAN. Junior year is the time that you should seriously begin to research and examine your post-secondary options, take college exams, schedule college visits, and start noticing scholarships. But, first, assess your current graduation status.

1. Monitor your academic progress. Your success in school depends on your classroom performance. REMEMBER, YOU MUST HAVE 2O CREDITS TO BECOME A SENIOR!!! At the end of your senior year, you must have ALL required credits completed in order to participate in the graduation ceremony. The privilege of participating in the graduation ceremony can also be removed for disciplinary actions @ the discretion of the CCHS principal.

(Use this page to recall and assess your current graduation status.Check off classes you have completed and then determine which courses would best benefit you for next year.)

(Carefully select senior courses. Dont fall victim to SENIORITISColleges will expect your transcript to show course choices demonstrating a progression to the next academic leveldont plan on taking off your last semester. Colleges do see your final transcript and offers of admittance can change. Classes for 12th grade year:English IV:Economics/ Personal FinanceMath: (Bridge Math or Higher depending on whether you score 19 on math portion of ACT)POS/Elective: POS/Elective: POS/Elective: POS/Elective: POS/Elective/Remaining requirement: ) (Minimum Requirements Completed** REMINDER Math and Science requirements may be modified for students who have an IEP with the highest levels being Geometry and Biology respectively that may have to be fulfilled. Students must still earn the appropriate number of credits. Coursework will be more broken down (allowing 2 credits to be earned for Algebra, Geometry and Biology) to allow for more preparation and skill mastery before required EOC tests.) (*Do you need TUTORING? Talk to your teacher immediately before you fall too far behind. Most teachers offer tutoring before and after school. Also, let your counselor know if you are struggling in your classes.)

2. Assess and modify your educational plans to support your career goals. Select appropriate and challenging courses to prepare for your next step.

What class(s) will you choose to further prepare you for college/career? Have your teachers recommended an honors course for you? Remember options which will allow you to earn college credit or allow you to leave early. Think about those courses that look really good to colleges. (i.e. AP, Dual Enrollment, etc.).

(Would you be interested in getting some of the basic college courses out of the way while you are still in high school? Do you have a minimum 3.0 GPA?You could go ahead and take college courses such as: Psychology, Speech, English Comp 1 & 2, Probability and Statistics, calculus, Computer Applications,US History I & II, etc. You need to learn about DUAL ENROLLMENT.(Dont forgetAP courses could also provide you with a great experience and potentially some college credit too [credit thru testing].))

CCHS COURSE OPTIONS WITH WSCC

Dual Enrollment (DE): Students are considered "dually enrolled" when they are attending high school and a post-secondary school, like Walters State, Carson-Newman, Tusculum, etc., at the same time. Dual-Enrollment (DE) programs offer qualified high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to receive COLLEGE credit at a relatively low cost while still in high school. By applying for the DE Grant, you could be awarded $1200 ($300 a semester) to use toward the cost of dual enrollment courses. This means you can earn 4 college credits before you leave high school. The grant will pay $300 toward each semester. The remaining balance for you and your family would be approximately $170.00 plus the cost of your book (if a book is required).

DE class options for CCHS are:

Evening course(s) @ CCHS (6 - 9 p.m. one night a week per course)

Afternoon course(s) @ CCHS (app. 4:20 - 5:40 two times a week - no Fridays)

Course(s) @ college's main campus or other campus

Online course(s) using your own internet connection

Course(s) in addition to the 4 blocks scheduled at CCHS

(Students interested in Dual Enrollment MUST make an appointment to see their high school counselor first to get permission to participate.)Course(s) as part of the 4 blocks scheduled at CCHS with one of our teachers or through the distance learning lab

(GPA )ALL of your grades impact your cumulative GPA (Grade Point Average); therefore, you want to do your best in each of your classes every semester. Remember, this (along with college entrance exam scores) will make a difference next year when scholarships come into play.

Each semester grade is worth points; refer to the following scale to calculate your own. Do you remember how to calculate your GPA?

(Grading Scale:100-93A92-85B84-75C74-70D0-69F)Semester Grade:

Points for final grade in Honors courses:

Points for final grade in AP/DE courses:

A = 4 points

B = 3 points

C = 2 points

D = 1 point

F = 0 points

P/NP (Pass/No Pass)

A = 4.5 points

B = 3.5 points

C = 2.5 points

F = 0 points

P/NP (Pass/No Pass)

A = 5 points

B = 4 points

C = 3 points

D = 2 points

F = 0 points

P/NP (Pass/No Pass)

Remember, to get your GPA, just add up all the points using each semester grade and then divide the total by the number of grades you used. __________ ___________ = _______ GPA

(What about the ACT???)

(Why take the ACT and/or SAT in your junior year?So you:Can provide your score on scholarship applicationsHave time to retake it if you want to try for a better score.)

Almost all colleges require scores from either the ACT or the SAT. Many colleges accept scores from both exams; however, some colleges require, or prefer, scores from one or the other. You should check the colleges website for information regarding which test a college requires or prefers. Students may retake these tests as many times as they want; colleges will generally use their highest score. Students can pick up registration information and study guides in the counseling office.

READ the study guides, take the practice tests, use the online prep sites, and go over what you missed on the practice tests. Of course, honors and advanced classes at CCHS prepare you for both the ACT and the SAT.

ALL JUNIORS WILL BE TAKING

THE ACT DURING SCHOOL ON: March 4, 2014

This test date will be provided at NO CHARGE to the student. Testing procedures will be followed so that scores will be reportable to the post-secondary schools (i.e. colleges, universities, NCAA, etc.) of your choice. Please explore the website www.actstudent.org/start or see your counselor to pick up an ACT Preparation Booklet.

You may also see your counselor about CCHS new ACT ONLINE PREP program.

In addition, Mr. Douthat is offering Science ACT Prep on Tuesdays and Ms. K. Suggs is offering Math ACT Prep on Wednesdays.

(Nearby SAT Testing Centers: -Sevier Co. High-UT Knoxville-ETSU)

(In addtion to carefully selecting your courses, succeeding in highschool, and performing well on college entrance exams, its important to GET INVOLVED IN SOMETHING IF YOU HAVENT ALREADY!! Start connecting your extra-/co-curricular activities you are choosing to your future goals and aspirations. Dont wait till senior yearremember you want to establish a LEADERSHIP role. )

3. Demonstrate the ability to balance school, extracurricular activities, leisure time and family time. Get involved. Ask yourself, What kind of activities am I involved in now? What else do I need to consider being a part of?

Participate in a sport, take on a leadership role in a club, Volunteer in your community, Get a summer job/internship or participate in TN Governors School, visit your college of choice, job shadow

Extra-/Co-curricular and community activities enhance your high school experience and they look great on college scholarships and applications. So, volunteer or tryout for leadership roles. DONT WAIT until its too late; get involved now! Keep a log of your academic progress and activities (resume`).

(USE the skills youve gained in English and/or Keyboarding to create your Rsum or Curriculum Vitae.Its a snapshot of who you are and what you have done or accomplished.)

You may be wondering why you need a rsum. Most rsums include the same information that your college application asks for, but a rsum has four distinct advantages:

You can copy information from your rsum right on to your application, without having to worry about forgetting things.

Your rsum will help your counselor and your teachers to write the best possible letter of recommendation. However, give your counselor at least a 2 week notice if you need a letter of recommendation.

A rsum will give you an organized, professional appearance.

What follows is a general outline for a master rsum. It is not the only way to create a rsum; it is only a suggested format. If you have nothing vital to offer under a certain heading, omit it. If there is a heading you can add that will tell important things about you, add it. Like the rest of your application, your rsum should reflect your personality, your strengths, and your interests.

(What are your plans for after high school?)4. Plan/Prepare for your next step-college, trade/technical school, or the world of work. Consider where you will stand academically at graduation. What are the admissions requirements for your postsecondary choice? Will you meet the requirements?

Visit colleges and/or research them online. Attend college/career fairs.

Your success and academic achievement will enhance your future, career, and hobbies.

Work with your parents on narrowing down your college choices to five or fewer. Try for a dream college, a sure bet, and a few that are somewhere in between. Always have a backup plan.

There are about 2,000 colleges and universities in the United States. As you start looking at colleges, consider the following:

1. COMPETITIVENESS Requirements (ACT/GPA, etc) how difficult is it to become accepted?

2. COST, SCHOLARSHIPS offered by institution

3. AVAILABLE MAJORS or programs of study (Do they offer the program you want to study?)

4. LOCATION of the campus (how far do you want to be from home?)

5. SIZE of the campus and average enrollment

6. REPUTATION of the college/university

7. FACILITIES/SERVICES available to students

8. Surrounding COMMUNITY

Once you have identified colleges that you would like to investigate further, call the admission offices and ask to be placed on their mailing lists.

(MILITARY ACADEMIES: The United States Service academies, also known as the United States Military Academies, are federal academies for the undergraduate education and training of commissioned officers for the United States armed forces. U.S. Service academies:United States Military Academy, (Army) also known as "West Point" at West Point NYUnited States Naval Academy, also known as "Annapolis" in Annapolis MDUnited States Coast Guard Academy, in New London CTUnited States Air Force Academy, also known as the "U.S.A.F.A." in Colorado Springs COUnited States Merchant Marine Academy, also known as "Kings Point" Congressional nominations: Applicants to all service academies, except the United States Coast Guard Academy, are required to obtain a nomination to the school. Nominations may be made by Senators, Congressmen, and the President, and the Vice President (The United States Merchant Marine Academy only accepts nominations from Senators and Congressmen). Applicants to the Coast Guard Academy compete in a direct nationwide competitive process that has no by-state quotas.If you are interested in seeking a congressional nomination and appointment, please begin the application process before your senior year. Completed application packets are due back to Senators Bob Corker and Lamar Alexander, AND Rep. Phil Roes office by Oct. 1st. The application for nomination is extensive and requires several references/recommendations. Most of this should be completed along with having taken the SAT by the time you start your senior year. Congressional nomination interviews begin at the end of October. Nominees/appointees are contacted starting in December. For further information, see Counselor, Mr. Johnson and/or contact an admissions officer.)

(Are you planning on applying for an ROTC Scholarship? If so, take the Act or SAT by Dec of 11th grade. Also, talk to a military representative about optional summer programs. The primary type of ROTC scholarship is the four-year tuition scholarship program. These are awarded to high school seniors on the basis of a national competition, and each year more than 4,000 winners are selected from about 25,000 applicants. If you decide to compete for a four-year ROTC scholarship, it's important that you apply to a college that accepts it. A smart strategy is to apply to more than one participating school, as you may not be accepted at your first choice. See Mr. Johnson for more information.)

SAVE MONEY and check into scholarships- scholarships are free money awarded for various reasons ranging from athletic talent, grades, persons who are left-handed, red headed, to someone who is planning to major in Spanish. Start looking at scholarship possibilities during your junior year.

Be worthy of a scholarship: by keeping your grades up, doing well on tests, participating in extracurricular activities, and volunteering for causes that matter to you all of these things will help give you an edge as you apply for scholarships.

(Dont get scammed: Scholarship information is free. Think twice or call your counselor before paying someone for scholarship information. )The Internet has a great deal of information on scholarship opportunities. Some excellent sources are listed below.
