College Rep Visits - Students

 

We are so happy to be able to welcome students and College Representatives for in-person Rep visits in the College Career Center. These visits are for Juniors and Seniors only and provide students the opportunity to meet with Reps from a specific college based on the schedule available on SchooLinks. Depending on the number of students that sign up for a visit it may be a large group, small group or sometimes individual. Parents are not allowed to attend these events.

 

Rep Visits are listed on SchooLinks and are scheduled during class time Monday through Friday. To attend students MUST

  1. Register to attend on SchooLinks at least 48 hours prior to the event.
  2. Get a Teacher Permission Slip signed from their teacher for the class they are missing. Out of respect for teachers and for their planning purposes, students MUST ask for a signature no less than 24 hours prior to the event. Teachers do not have to sign the permission slip if they do not feel it is in the students best interest to miss class.
  3. If you do not have a class at that time you MUST still complete the Permission Slip (mark the box that you do not have a class scheduled) and turn it in to the CCC by END OF LUNCH the day prior. 
  4. Turn in permission slips during Panther Time, Lunch or after school ONLY.
    1. Students are NOT allowed to ask any teacher to leave class to turn in a permission slip
    2. Students should not disrupt other CCC meetings to turn in a permission slip.
  5. Turn in the signed permission slip to the CCC NO LATER than END OF LUNCH the day prior to the event - if the event is Monday or the day after a holiday, the permission slip is due on the school day BEFORE the event.
  6. Events with no students signed up to attend will be cancelled 24 hours in advance

Keep in mind that a students’ priority is to attend class and it is up to the teacher to determine if a student may miss class. If you are a Junior or Senior and not able to attend a Rep Visit, please stop by the CCC to see Mrs. Arico.

 

If you sign up for an event and find you cannot attend, CANCEL your attendance in advance via SchooLinks. SchooLinks provides reminders to you and that is your opportunity to verify it fits in your schedule. We are very fortunate to have so many schools that want to visit us so let's be appreciative of their time by showing up. PVPHS School rules are in effect during all CCC events and rep visits.

 

If students do not follow these guidelines they may not be permitted to attend future CCC events.

 

 

A complete list of College Rep visits can be found on SchooLinks where students register for these events.

TEACHER PERMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

In order to attend any College Rep Visit during class time, you must request teacher permission to miss class by completing the Teacher Permission Slip located below. The form must be signed by your teacher 48 hours prior to the event and turned in to the CCC no later than END OF LUNCH the school day prior to the event. PERMISSION SLIPS ARE NOT ACCEPTED ELECTRONICALLY (email, TEAMS or SchooLinks) and no exceptions will be made.

 

If you do not have a class scheduled, you MUST complete the teacher permission request form and turn it in (without a teacher signature) so the information can be verified prior to your arrival. NO STUDENTS WILL  BE ALLOWED TO ATTEND WITHOUT AN APPROPRIATE TEACHER PERMISSION SLIP TURNED IN ON TIME.

 

In order to request permission you MUST:

1) Be a Junior or Senior 

2) Have registered for the event on SchooLinks

3) Make a separate request for each Rep Visit

4) If you have no class during a period, please note "no class scheduled" - this will be verified prior to the event

 

If you do not have a teacher permission form your attendance will not be cleared and you will be sent back to class. Please know that class time is the priority and if you are not able to make the event, the reps information will be made available to you for follow up and they are always happy to communicate with you individually. Just stop by the CCC to see Mrs. Arico.

 

All students must sign in when they attend the Rep Visit and attendance is taken at each visit based on teacher permission slips provided. Teachers and the Attendance office will be notified of your attendance by the end of the school day the rep visit is scheduled. If you don't attend a meeting you MUST be in class unless you are out ill.
