Thinking About Your Future

The Sophomore Year Counseling Program

Sophomore Year is an important year for students to build on their successes, define new pathways, and strengthen relationships.

Sophomores take the PSAT in the fall. The results offer a baseline of where they test well and areas to strengthen over the next couple of years. They will take the PSAT again in October of their junior year.

During the morning Sophomore Seminars held in the second semester, School Counselors meet with students to discover and explore career options and possibilities. Additionally, sophomores will be updating information in their SCOIR accounts and utilizing SCOIR for future career research.

We expect students to take advantage of opportunities and evolve their thoughts regarding potential paths to explore in college and beyond.

CCHS offers a Career Exploration Fair in April, which gives sophomores the opportunity to attend career-focused presentations with professionals in various fields, to ask specific questions, and to learn more about careers that they find interesting.
