Preparing your Child for

College and Careers

Now is the right time to start thinking about college and careers. No matter what grade your child is in, you can help them begin preparing for their future.

Getting ready for college

tips for Parents

  • Encourage your child to read every day for at least 30 minutes. Reading will help them do well in every subject.

  • Talk to your child about how important it is for them to go to school every day. Attendance is a strong indicator of your child’s academic success.

  • Help your child develop good habits such as being punctual, organized and working well with others. Tracking daily and weekly homework assignments is a great way to build time management organization skills. These are all habits they will need to be successful in college and in their career.

  • Help your child explore their interests. Encourage them to join clubs or programs at their school and in their local community, and ask them about their favorite subjects, hobbies, and activities.

  • Encourage your child, regardless of how they are doing in school, to go to college. All students, including those with disabilities or multilingual learners, can go to college.

  • Attend parent-teacher conferences and school activities. Talk with teachers about how your child is doing in school and monitor your child’s progress.

  • Talk to your child about getting good grades in high school and make sure your child is on track to graduate high school. Your child needs to get a high school diploma or get a GED/HSE to apply to college.

  • Meet with your child’s school counselor and teachers, ask them to share information on colleges that match your child’s interests, paying for college, and begin planning for their future as a team.
