Questions & Answers from Parents
Q: If a student wants to go to PPCC, is there financial
aid through the Pre-Collegiate Program?
A: Yes, there is a Pre-Collegiate Student scholarship for
students who attend PPCC. You will need to contact our
liaison, Jennifer Sengenberger; whom is the director of Career
Services at PPCC to inform her of your intent and needs.
You may reach her at 540-7143 or email
jennifer.sengenberger@ppcc.edu. Q: How
often is the website updated for parent's information? And
can parents offer suggestions? Also, can we survey the
students to see what content they would like to receive in the
program? A: The PCDP website is updated weekly.
The parents pages are a new addition to the site but will be
updated weekly as well and more if needed. We love to hear
suggestions from parents as well as students, we only ask that
you help by supplying a solution to any problem you identify. On
September 10th distributed a survey to the students asking them
what activities they would be most interested in receiving at
Saturday Academies.
Q: My student is transferring to District
49, will she still be able to participate in the program?
A: Absolutely. Anytime your student moves to any school
within the city, they can still participate n the program, no
matter what school.
Q: How many juniors will be allowed to
participate in the summer program? A: The
minimum amount of students is 75, and now that we are no longer
hosting students in the dorms, our hope is to accommodate more
students. Q: Do you think we could have
more parent brain storming sessions? It would be helpful
if 10th grade parents could talk to 11th grade parents and so
forth. A: Anytime we have Parent Alliance
meetings we encourage parents to get to know one another.
We will try to schedule a Parent Brainstorming session at the
spring Parent Alliance Meeting. Q: Is there
a timeline for everything a senior needs to do to be college
bound? A: Yes, there is a timeline.

Really well presented and informative

I would suggest that when meeting all
together in a large room that you would repeat the questions
asked so that the public can understand what was asked.

I will be looking online for more answers.
