OCR Document Port Washington High School LOOKING TO YOUR FUTURE A Post-Secondary Guide for Students and Parents 2012 - 2013 To Parents and Students: This handbook is specifically designed to assist all students in gaining a better understanding of the procedures to be followed for technical college admission, college admission, or entry into the military or job market. Please read it carefully and keep it handy for reference during your four years at Port Washington High School. Planning for the future is a complex and challenging task. It requires time, thought, organization, and a sense of perspective. Proceeding carefully and planning well are worth all of this effort. The success of your plans will be directly proportional to the time and effort put into them. To Students: Utilize self-assessment in your selection process, work with the materials in the guidance office, and carefully evaluate what you learn. Mark the important test deadlines and take advantage of the ACT and SAT preparation workshops. Follow the timelines and guidelines for your application or entry procedure to the letter. Although you cannot be guaranteed acceptance to a particular technical college, university, military service, or job, taking an active and responsible role in the admission or entry process, seeking help when needed, and making realistic choices will certainly increase your potential for success. Sincerely, Port Washington High School Staff NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY Pursuant to Section 118.13, Stats., no student shall be discriminated against on the basis of sex, race, religion, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, parental or marital status, sexual orientation, or physical, learning, mental, or emotional disability.

    2009 NATIONAL RESEARCH REPORT National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report Are college students satisfi ed with their educational experiences? Each year, the National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report examines this subject, compiling data from hundreds of thousands of students attending four-year public campuses, four-year private institutions, two-year community colleges, and private two-year career schools.
