Eleventh Grade Services
Eleventh grade is the pre-launch year… time to get all of the ducks in a row and put forth the very best effort.
As an 11th grader, a student is established in high school, confident in navigating school, but often the looming college process creeps in. Beginning to work with CCEC in the 11th grade allows us to build off of the 9th and 10th grade foundation and create intentional action steps to maximize this pivotal year prior to submitting applications.
The 11th grade offers one last year to impact the GPA, grow in rigor and explore school/community activities. It is often the most academically challenging and stressful year of high school.
By beginning our relationship at the start of the 11th grade year, we can address ALL of the metrics listed above and can give our clients a competitive advantage in the application process.
Here is an example of the interactions we propose for each student:
Zoom will be our primary method of communication, but we are happy to meet in person in the Athens area.
