GRADE LEVEL INFORMATION
What's New for Your Graduation Year
Class of 2025
Dear Class of 2025,
Riverwood counselors want to remind you that all students in Fulton County Schools have access to Naviance, which can be accessed through ClassLink. As you begin your senior year, we strongly encourage you to visit Naviance to research and plan for college, explore careers, and to find scholarships.
For students planning to attend college, you will need to become familiar with the different platforms’ colleges use to have students apply. These platforms include:
· Common Black College Application
· Individual College Application Portal (visit school’s admissions website)
If you are using Common Application to apply to college, you will need to:
1. Create your Common App account.
2. Complete your Common App essay prompts.
3. Do not request counselor or teacher recommendations until after August 1st.
4. Counselor and teacher requests for recommendation will be processed starting September 1, 2024
Another task to consider includes completing the Senior Recommendation Survey which is now available now in Naviance (Task: Naviance Home PageàAbout MeàSurveys from my school). Complete it over the summer to ensure your counselors and teachers have the needed information to complete an outstanding recommendation for you. Counselor and teacher requests for recommendation will be processed starting September 1, 2024
If you are interested in going into the workforce, military, or desire to explore other options outside of college, please contact your assigned counselor in the fall. We are eager to help you develop a plan!
Here is information about how, when and where to order cap and gown, class rings, letter jackets and graduation announcements.
The following college reps will be visiting Riverwood in the next few weeks. Interested juniors and seniors must register in Naviance and obtain a gold college visit pass in the College/Career Center to be signed by the teacher of the class that will be missed at lest 2 days before the college session.
