SKG Senior Parent Meeting and Probe College Fair
We are excited to invite you and your student to our upcoming College Fair. This event presents a unique opportunity for both parents and students to explore various college and university options, connect with admissions representatives, and gather essential information about potential paths after graduation. The College Fair will be held at SKG, and it's tailored specifically for our 11th and 12th graders, aiming to provide insight and guidance as they begin to make critical decisions about their higher education. We highly encourage your participation, as this event can play a pivotal role in shaping your child's future!
What is Probe? Probe is an annual program of college fairs and high school counselor workshops that are held throughout the state of Georgia. The program is managed by the Georgia Education Articulation Committee (GEAC), whose sole mission is to disseminate information and stimulate interest in post-secondary education for students in Georgia.
Attention, Senior Parents! We strongly encourage you to participate in one of our two Senior Parent meetings. You may choose to attend either the 6:30 PM or the 7:30 PM session. Counselors will discuss important topics relevant to your senior student's final year. We look forward to seeing you there!
