Guidance & College Prep Resources
This is your one-stop resource for helping your student navigate the path from high school to their next step in life. Whether you're planning for college, exploring career options, or applying for scholarships, this page provides essential tools and support every step of the way.
Here you’ll find information on standardized testing, study skills, financial aid opportunities, scholarship and grant options, community service tracking, and guidance for both college and career planning. Our goal is to equip each student to step confidently into their future prepared, informed, and rooted in faith.
Help Classes for Grades 6-12
If a 6-12 grade student finds himself/herself having trouble keeping up in the standard classroom time, he/she can attend help classes in all the core subjects. Please be advised that all help classes are by appointment only. Students should communicate with teachers at least one day in advance. Otherwise, teachers are not obligated to be present.
If the scheduled times do not meet an individual student’s needs, the student must plan with the teacher in question. Please remember that help classes are not a substitute for one-on-one tutoring. If your child has extreme difficulty with a subject, consider hiring a private tutor. If you cannot locate one, contact the guidance office for a list of recommended tutors.
Community Service
Reporting Your Hours: The FCCS Community Service Hour Log Sheet can be used to record all service hours. These hours must be turned into the FCCS Guidance office by the end of the school year to be recorded in the permanent student record and to appear on high school transcripts.
Work Related Community Service: The state of Florida recognizes that many students must work a job in order to help with household expenses. The hours that a student works can now be counted as community service hours. A copy of the pay stub showing hours worked must be submitted to the Academic Dean to log into the student's community service account.
