College & Career
Mrs. Kalantzis, College and Career Counselor, works with the Counselors to provide students assistance and support in making post-high school plans. The process is ongoing throughout high school, and includes individual appointments and group guidance focusing on career exploration, college/military/trade school planning, the financial aid process, and scholarship searches.
PNHS students have used Naviance for career and college research, as well as for managing the college application process and sending transcripts for college and scholarship applications (for current students). For the 24-25 school year, current seniors will still use Naviance, while 9th-11th graders will be transitioning to School Links.
Updated information is posted on the PNHS website and in the grade level Google Classrooms.
Questions? See Mrs. Kalantzis in room 300, contact her by email, or call (815) 609-8506.
