It has been an exciting week already, and it is only Tuesday! After today almost all of the students will have been on a college campus. Students visited UW-Oshkosh and Lawrence University in Appleton and heard a presentation from representatives from Fox Valley Technical College. These trips and presentations have really given the students something to think about. We also watched a video on living on minimum wage and made our first "budget".
All of this information will be used to help them determine what career to choose when making their career movie to share later in the year.
We learned about a website http://collegeboard.com that allows you to research colleges and universities around the nation. It has information on admissions, cost, educatioanl support, athletics and much more. Check it out with your student!
