      <title>Postsecondary Options  by Kelly Amrine</title>
      <link>https://padlet.com/kamrine1/uyev0h8okb4537wf</link>
      <description>The thought of life beyond high school can be a daunting one for both students and their families. While it can be a lot to consider, it’s one that we can begin investigating sooner rather than later. Knowing the availability of supports, programs, and opportunities out there, can help to ease some of the stress. Below, you will find various sections with links and descriptions detailing postsecondary opportunities and supports. It&#39;s never too early to start researching and identifying programs an individual may be interested in. Identifying opportunities of interest early, helps to ensure the student meets the qualifications and requirements that may be necessary to participate in each program. I encourage you to investigate and reach out to any of the options and see what your child may be interested in. It&#39;s important to align your child&#39;s realistic goals with their strengths, ambitions, and abilities. I&#39;m always available via email at Kamrine@delasallefm.org if you have any questions or want to talk about the opportunities listed. I look forward to working with each of you and your children as we prepare for their future endeavors.</description>

Our core courses are structured to meaningfully prepare students for college to be more effective and confident learners. Most importantly, rising juniors, seniors, and new graduates get to experience what it’s like to live — and learn — on a college campus.</div>]]></description>
