All students who are interested in or currently participating in the College Credit Plus program during the 2024-2025 school year (this includes students enrolling in courses offered at West Geauga High School, or, a local college) must complete a Letter of Intent by April 1, 2024. This is a state-mandated deadline with no exceptions. Continuing CCP students are also required to submit a letter of intent by April 1, 2024.
Here are the steps required:
1. Obtain a letter of intent from the WGHS School Counseling Office or download it below. Review this with your parents or guardians.
2. Take a photo of the signature page of the letter of intent (no need to get the counselor's signature as we will sign all forms once they are received).
3. Complete the CCP Intent Form Upload Google Form. Please complete the questions and upload the intent form.
4. Apply to the CCP Program (Kent, Lakeland, Tri-C, etc).
5. Once admitted, register for courses. You must obtain your counselor's signature before submitting it to the college.
Students and families must review this presentation regarding College Credit Plus policies and procedures. Additional information can be found on the WGHS website.
Students are encouraged to initiate the college application process ASAP and register for CCP courses before the summer break.
Please contact your school counselor with any questions.
On 3/7 during Wolverine Period the Counselors will be reviewing the CCP Information presentation that was given back in December to students who were not able to attend. We will meet in the Choir Room.
Students will be expected to sign in to let attendance know that they are present with us. If they do not sign in, they are responsible for any consequences deemed appropriate by the administration.

The WGMS Sixth Grade will be going to Camp Fitch on March 11-March 13, 2024. We are looking for high school students to act as camp counselors. Camp counselors are typically in charge of a group of about 6-10 sixth graders. As a counselor, you would be responsible for leading your group to the various activities, keeping the students on task throughout the programs, overseeing meals and assisting parents in the cabins at night. We are looking for responsible students who would be a positive role model for younger students.
If you are interested in being a counselor for Sixth Grade Camp, please complete this application and return to Ms. Moeschberger by Friday, February 9.
Please note the dates of camp: March 11-March 13, 2024. This is a Monday through Wednesday. Please make sure that you are available on these dates before submitting this application. If you will be participating in a spring sport, please check with your coach on whether or not this interferes with the team schedule.
