Our school counselors at all levels are working hard to support SAISD's 80-50-10 vision of getting more students to college. The NACAC conference is a premier event in the world of college admissions and high school counseling. Two worlds cross-pollinate in cultivating college access and success. It will be a great opportunity to network with hundreds of admissions representatives from all over the nation. We can't wait to tell them about all the great things happening in SAISD and to make some lasting connections in the college admissions field. Any opportunity to grow our college networks is a great investment in our student's futures.
