    Colgan is now preparing for the 2023-24 school year

    Timeline & Events:

    January 28-February 5: Course Recommendations on StudentVUE

    Course recommendations from teachers are available to view on StudentVUE between January 28 and February 5. Students will also be able to make additional requests on StudentVUE during this time. Please contact your student's teacher if you have any questions about the recommendation.

    Jan. 31 & Feb. 1: AP DE Student Panels

    Two student panels are offered, on January 31 and February 1, for students considering enrolling in AP and DE coursework. Students interested in hearing a student's perspective can register in Naviance or see their school counselor.

    Feb. 1: AP & DE Info Session and Curriculum Fair

    At 6:30pm in the Auditorium, we will host our Advanced Placement (AP) and Dual Enrollment (DE) information session. Dr. Healey and Mrs. Handville will discussed AP and DE courses available at Colgan along with what the courses are, why students should take them, and how to earn college credit. The differences between AP and DE will also be shared, along with the process for enrolling in either or both of these types of courses. Colgan-specific information about advanced courses will also be presented.

    From 7-8pm in Commons B, we invite you to meet with teachers from all departments for our Curriculum Fair to find out specifics about courses at Colgan. This is a great opportunity to ask individual questions prior to academic advising. Representatives from the counseling department will also be available.

    Academic Advising- Beginning Feb. 7

    Academic advising will begin through English classes on February 7 with rising seniors and continue through the end of March. After your student meets with their counselor, the requests will be visible in Parent/StudentVUE under Course Requests. Requests will also be emailed home in May and changes can be made through June 9.
