Timeline for the College Bound Student

Please use this timeline to help guide you through the college preparation/selection process. Be sure to refer to the more detailed college selection materials that are available from the guidance office, and to tap into your counselor’s knowledge/experience with this process.

The Child Study Team recommends that all college bound students who currently receive services follow the timeline for the college bound below, and include the following additional recommendations highlighted in bold print.

Parental Support

Parents must maintain their role as guardian, offering support and guidance through the middle and high school years. The foundation for strengthening this type of relationship with your teen is communication. Establishing an atmosphere of trust and emotional security, no matter the topic, will help strengthen your relationship. The following guidelines will help to foster a secure and trusting relationship:

  • Give more independence, when appropriate;

  • Establish clear boundaries;

  • Enforce rules, and determine appropriate consequences for breaking those rules;

  • Praise positive behavior and good choices;

  • Keep criticism and demeaning comments to a minimum;

  • Respect your teen's need for privacy; and

  • Encourage your teen to make their own decisions as they mature.

The Guidance Department is available to support you and your teen throughout their time at Central Regional. Guidance counselors may be able to offer some suggestions to help you, and can reinforce your efforts at home in the school setting.
