Sharpstown
High School is proud to announce
that the strategic educational
tactic of utilizing "Professional
Learning Communities" (PLC's) will
be in effect again this coming
school year.
Statistics indicate that having
teachers of common subjects create
teams to collaborate is helping
Sharpstown raise test scores.
Learners are reaping the benefits as
they are fostering "Higher Level
Thinking Skills" by being part of
the Professional Learning Community.

Think
about what kind of job you might like in the
future. Most professions, including those in
healthcare, computer technology, and engineering,
for example, require a college degree or
certificate. You can learn more about requirements
for different careers, and what majors are offered
at Texas' public colleges and universities at
www.CollegeForTexans.com
. If you know the direction you are going, you'll
stay on track, saving yourself time and money.
Ms. Andrea is the GO Center counselor and is located
in room 100. Please feel free to visit with
her and get all the information you need to make a
wise college decision. |
