CCP Update- State Guidance

Hello All, I wanted to pass along some guidance regarding CCP. If you are a current CCP student or plan on taking CCP courses next year, please take the time to read over this document.  Here some points I want to highlight from the document: Intent to Participate Deadline Students in public schools must provide a completed Intent to Participate form by April 1, 2020. The extended deadline is May 1, 2020. Public schools will accept Intent to Participate forms via electronic mail, postal mail, or other options using social distancing. Counseling sessions should occur remotely via telephone or other online method to the greatest extent practicable. The ability for secondary schools to accept forms after the May 1 deadline may be considered to respond to particularly exceptional circumstances.

Parchment- Ordering a transcript

Using Parchment allows you to send a transcript to yourself (parent, guardian, grandparent) a college, or an employer. You are able to view past/current grades, GPA, attendance, ACT scores, and End of Course exam test results on a transcript. Here are some friendly reminders and sugguestions: Transcripts are updated on a quarterly basis. Using Parchment requires you to create an account. We recommend saving your login information and updating to a personal email once you are close to graduation.  Seniors request a transcript to be sent to the college you are attending at the end of the school year. (We suggest right before graduation.) CCP students send a transcript to the college you applied to.  Take advantage of free transcripts while in high school. Once you graduate, there will be a fee for transcripts after one transcript. Use the link below to order a transcript.  https://www.parchment.com/u/registration/19475/account
