What role do parents play in Connecticut State Scholars?
A parent’s encouragement and support are essential in helping a student achieve their academic goals. In the 8th grade, each student will prepare a four-year Scholars Course of Study plan with the help of parents and school counselors. Parents should work with school counselors and teachers to help their children meet Scholars’ course requirements. In this way, parents help ensure that students are prepared for the workforce or higher education upon graduation from high school.
