    PPS College Rep. Visits Guidance for the 2024-2025 School Year

    Historically, college visits are scheduled individually by college representatives based upon their discretion. We recognize this practice creates barriers to access if a student happens to attend a èßäÊÓƵ the college representative is not familiar with or typically does not receive applications from.   

    Requirement to schedule in-person college visits at PPS Priority High Schools

    As a district, we are committed to disrupting patterns of inequities around access and opportunities for our historically underserved èßäÊÓƵ and èßäÊÓƵ communities we serve. College coordinators have collectively decided to require all college representatives to offer a minimum of one in-person visit to one of our priority high èßäÊÓƵs, which include Roosevelt, Franklin, Jefferson, and McDaniel, in additiona to scheduling an in-person visit at their regular rotation of high èßäÊÓƵs. 

    All college reps should be prepared to share evidence of having scheduled a college visit to at least one of our Priority High Schools.

    Required discussion around Mental Health supports available to èßäÊÓƵ

    Additionally, in PPS we have systems in place to support èßäÊÓƵ’ social and emotional well-being, mental health, and academic success and to help them feel safe during high èßäÊÓƵ, but that support system shifts when they leave us, particularly during the critical transition to their post-secondary lives, college, and careers. We ask all post-secondary representatives (college admission, military recruiters, etc.) who visit with our èßäÊÓƵ to include the following in your presentations or conversations with prospective èßäÊÓƵ during your visit:

    • Counseling, mental health, and wellness services provided to èßäÊÓƵ on your campus/institution (including mediation, crisis management, referral, community outreach, etc.)

    • Support systems and contact information 

    • Any other materials regarding health and mental health you feel are necessary or useful to èßäÊÓƵ and families

    College coordinators will be the point of contact for scheduling visits at their èßäÊÓƵ. College coordinators will direct college reps to schedule their visits using the established process in MaiaLearning as outlined above.
