To let a college know you will enroll there, you must pay their enrollment deposit and then sign up for new student orientation. Also complete the housing application if you plan to live on campus.

Juniors & Sophomores
23-24 Lancer LeadersJuniors and Sophomores,
Would you like to develop your leadership skills? Would you like to help other students? Can you commit to being a mentor for the next school year? Would you like to earn school service hours?
We are continuing to create a high school transition program that welcomes freshmen and makes them feel comfortable throughout the first year of their high school experience.
Built on the belief that students can help students succeed, the Lancer Leaders program trains mentors from sophomore and junior classes to be Lancer Leaders. As positive role models, Lancer Leaders are mentors and student leaders who guide the freshmen to discover what it takes to be successful during the transition to high school and help facilitate freshman success.
