College Counseling Program:
Students receive individualized support in test preparation, applications, college selection, and applying for grants and financial aid. Since the vast majority of TAC-PHS students are first-generation college-bound, the college counseling program plays an indispensable role in helping students and their families navigate each part of this unfamiliar and sometimes overwhelming process.
College counseling at TAC-PHS begins in seventh grade and continues throughout college. During their time at TAC-PHS, students receive counseling in all aspects of the college transition, including study skills, time management, personal budgeting, social networking, and how to deal with homesickness and stress.
The college counseling team plays a pivotal role in assisting and guiding students and their families through the entire college application process. This support typically entails:
• Advising and counseling 7th-12th grade students
• Researching, establishing and maintaining long-term relationships with key constituents in college admissions, including college admissions counselors, directors and university outreach centers
• Working with appropriate TAC-PHS staff to ensure that every student in every grade level is participating in available college-related activities when possible, including summer programs and talent identification programs
• Coordinating the administration of all standardized tests and test preparation courses for TAC-PHS students, including SAT, Reasoning and Subject Tests, ACT, AP tests, THEA, IOWA, ACT Explore and PSAT/SAT Prep courses
• Coordinating and hosting high school visits and college fairs at TAC-PHS for college admissions representatives
• Working collaboratively with school leaders to coordinate and facilitate the Freshman and Sophomore Seminar courses and program for 9th-10th grade levels
• Teaching at least two classes during the school year, including Junior and Senior Seminar sections
• Serving as a resource in the areas of financial aid and scholarships, working with undocumented students, testing and preparation, and college visitation programs
• Ensuring, in collaboration with school-level administrators, that all high school students are in compliance with state regulations regarding high school credits
• Facilitating a Summer Orientation Meeting to educate families about responsibilities and expectations related to college admission
• Serving as active and committed member of school-based teams
• Adhering to national regulations and responsibilities as outlined by the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) and the Texas Association for College Admission Counseling (TAC-PHS)
