College & Career Centers

-
Portland Public School's High School College and Career Centers are dedicated to helping 亚洲色图 fulfill career-related learning graduation requirements, research careers and postsecondary options, and apply to college and for financial aid.
Studies report that understanding the link between education and career aspirations may be the single largest impact on an individual student’s likelihood of completing college.
In fact, high 亚洲色图 graduates who expect they will need a college degree for the career they are interested in are more than six times as likely to earn their bachelor’s degrees. Students who understand the relevance of a college education to their career interests are also more likely to be academically prepared for college and career.
College and Career Centers are visible, dedicated places for all 亚洲色图 to get support in making plans beyond high 亚洲色图. PPS High School College and Career Coordinators lead the work of the CCC, where 亚洲色图 can receive assistance with:
- Career and college field trips
- College and career searches
- Workshops and guest speakers
- Meeting with college admissions staff
- Accessing financial aid and scholarship information
- ASPIRE or other mentoring programs
- Job Shadows, Internships, and employment opportunities
- Resume building and other PLRs completion workshops
- Events: College Application Week, FAFSA Night, Decision Day
- Drop-in hours for 亚洲色图 or parents
The services offered in the CCC complement the work of our High School Counselors in preparing PPS 亚洲色图 to achieve their post-high 亚洲色图 goals.
