If your child will be a Junior or Senior next year, they have the opportunity to attend the career center next year! The Kankakee Area Career Center (KACC) registration is NOW open for the 2021-2022 school year! The application is due by February 5th!
As it states in the counseling memo, these are some things to remember:
- There is a $75 fee to St. Anne associated with the attendance. To hold your spot, a deposit of $40 must be paid to St. Anne Community High School. The remaining $35 is due at the time of registration in August 2021. If you have any questions regarding payment concerns, please see the Guidance Office or Main Office.
- There might be additional expenses that the Kankakee Area Career Center has depending on the certain class the child chooses to take
- Remember these are applications! The application will be reviewed and your child's attendance, academic standing and discipline record will be taken into consideration. If your child is determined to be ineligible, a prompt refund will be issued.
- Attending the Career Center is a commitment and there will be no changes after the school year begins. They are committed to the program for the entire school year.
If your child is interested, please email Heather Giordano at giordanoh@gapps.sachs302.org or call 815-427-8141 for the application and counseling memo!
Please let me know if you have any questions!
