In just over five months, Washington High School seniors will don a gown and mortarboard and receive diplomas at commencement ceremonies. Director of the Kirkwood Washington Regional Center, Tera Pickens, advises now is the time for those students to be making decisions about what they will do after graduation. Pickens highly recommends students go on a campus tour of schools they are considering to help decide if they could see themselves as part of the community.

Pickens adds now is also the time for underclassmen to consider if they’d like to take courses at the Kirkwood Washington Regional Center through the district partnerships, as March 15th is their fall enrollment deadline.
