    CHS College Credit Plus Steps

     

    • Discuss with your Family whether or not taking CCP fits into your Four Year Plan.

    Being prepared for CCP is much more than being academically ready.  CCP is a student-driven program where students are expected to be responsible for adhering to deadlines, communicating directly with the college, and having the social/emotional maturity to start their college journey while still in high school. Please attend the CCP meeting first and have this discussion with your family.

    Step 1:
