Sep. 9th College Fair - Junior & Seniors Need to Sign Up

 Parent/Guardian of CHS Junior/Senior,


Every year, thousands of Nebraska juniors, seniors, and their parents attend college to find colleges, technical schools, or careers that meet their needs after high school. 


Our local college fair will be hosted by EducationQuest - an amazing nonprofit college access organization - at Chadron State College on Tuesday, September 9th from 9:30 - 10:30 a.m


CHS would like to partner with this event and allow any junior or senior to leave campus who is interested in attending.  Please sign the parent permission if your student is allowed to participate in this event.  


We will dismiss students at 9:30 a.m. and it is their responsibility to walk to the ballroom at Chadron State Campus and attend the fair for the amount of time that is deemed appropriate by the student and parent. Parking is not free at CSC and we do NOT suggest students drive to this event. Parents are welcome and encouraged to attend the fair with their students. Students will be required to return to their regular third-block class and will be dismissed for block 2 only on this day.

Barcode scanners will be utilized by most admissions personnel at the fair to acquire student contact information. Please have your students register for a barcode prior to the event:  http://www.strivefair.com. Students will be texted and emailed a barcode to take to the fair.


To give your student permission to attend this college fair please fill out the digital permission slip below and attendance will be excused for this time. Mrs. Watson and Mr. Nobiling will be at the college fair to assist students.

Registering for Dual Credit

(From Mrs. Watson, CHS School Counselor)

It is that time of year to choose if you'd like to take your advanced math and AP US History course for dual credit through Chadron State College.  If you wish to receive AP US History, College Algebra, AP Stats or AP Calculus for dual credit through Chadron State College you must click the link below and fill out the enrollment form.  


All enrollment forms need to be submitted online Friday August 22nd by 8 a.m. to ensure CSC time to finalize their enrollment.

 The form takes less than 5 minutes and payment is not required at the time of registration.  Registration for college credit is not a requirement to take this course!  Another option for students is to take the AP exam at the end of the semester (the first week in May).  The AP test is $98 and students can see here what scores they would need to transfer credits to their college of choice. If you choose to take the course without college credits, that is also completely fine! 

Speaking of payment: 

Families will pay for their dual credit course ONLINE through their student's MyCSC account or in person at the Chadron State College business office. Chadron HS will accept no payment for these courses - the college credit side is completely an agreement between your student and Chadron State College.  It usually takes 2-3 days to be fully set up and enrolled after the enrollment form is completed so students should be able to log in and pay for their courses after they receive an enrollment confirmation email. AP test option will be paid by cash or check to Chadron HS and we will order the test for you in May.

I will be visiting with College Algebra and AP US History tomorrow to go over any questions and hand out parent permission forms.  If your student qualifies for free and reduced lunch they will qualify for this class to be free and I would be happy to help them fill out a scholarship for this course. I need to reiterate this college part of the class is not required but rather an agreement between your family and Chadron State College, I am merely here for help if you have billing or enrollment questions please call the START office at 308-432-6061

Here are the course numbers for your form, thanks for getting this done:
