Hello Bulldogs! The Tracy High Counselors are looking for students to participate as members of their Advisory Council for the 25-26 school year. The Advisory Council meets once each semester after school to give input on counseling programs and goals. Student input is needed and appreciated. Counselors are looking for a minimum of 2-3 students who are willing to share their input with Counselors and other Advisory members. The application link will be available on the counseling website and their Instagram page (tracyhighcounseling) now through Sept 24th.

Tracy High School counselors are members of the American School Counselor Association. Our counseling department continuously strives to align with national counseling standards. Passionate about providing students with the best counseling support possible, the counseling team dedicates countless hours to training, collaborating and revamping curriculum for our students. In doing this work, THS counselors applied to become a Recognized ASCA Model Program (RAMP), which recognizes schools committed to delivering school counseling programs aligned with the ASCA National Model framework. The RAMP designation demonstrates to administrators, school boards, families and the community at large that the schools are committed to supporting the mission of the school and district. We are beyond delighted to announce that our THS Counseling Department is now a Recognized ASCA Model Program! This incredible designation is a reflection of our Bulldog family and the desire we have to support one another.

LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION

BRAG SHEET

CAL GRANT OPT OUT (SENIORS ONLY)

What is a Cal Grant Award?

A Cal Grant is money for college you don’t have to pay back. To qualify, you must apply for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or CA Dream Act Application (CADAA) by the deadline and meet the eligibility and financial requirements as well as any minimum GPA requirements. Cal Grants can be used at any University of California, California State University or California Community College, as well as qualifying independent and career colleges or technical schools in California.

There are three kinds of Cal Grants — A, B and C — but you don’t have to figure out which one to apply for. Your eligibility will be based on your FAFSA or CA Dream Act Application responses, your verified Cal Grant GPA, the type of California colleges you list on your FAFSA or CA Dream Act Application and whether you’re a recent high school graduate.

In order to be considered for a Cal Grant, California public high schools and charter schools are required to submit a high school Grade Point Average (GPA) to the California Student Aid Commission by October 1 for all graduating seniors, unless the student or parent has opted out. California Education Code section 69432.9 requires the school district or charter school, to notify all grade 11 pupils and their parent/guardian (if under the age of 18), in writing and no later than January 1 of a pupil’s grade 11 academic year, that the pupil will be deemed a Cal Grant applicant unless the pupil has opted out prior to the date below (as specified by the high school). Students who do not opt out will have their GPA submitted to the Commission to be considered for a Cal Grant award.

ELC OPT OUT (JUNIORS ONLY)

Local guarantee (ELC)

Our Eligibility in the Local Context (ELC) program recognizes your individual accomplishments in light of the opportunities offered by your particular high school.

What is ELC?

The ELC program ensures that academically talented and deserving California resident students from all over the state have the opportunity to join us at UC.

ELC status adds value to the application and is one of the factors considered when applications are reviewed. Additionally, ELC students not admitted to any of their campus choices are offered a spot at a UC campus that has space, if minimum UC requirements are met.

How do I qualify?

If you are a California resident and rank in the top 9 percent of students in your California high school class — and your high school participates in our ELC program — you may be eligible for ELC designation.

We will identify the top 9 percent of students based on your GPA in UC-approved coursework completed in the 10^th and 11^th grades. To be considered for ELC, you must have a minimum GPA of 3.0 and complete the following A-G courses prior to your senior year:

History	1 year
English	2 years
Mathematics	2 years
Science	1 year
Language other than English	1 year
Other A-G courses (chosen from the subjects listed above or another course approved by the university)	4 years

After you enter your coursework and grades in the UC application, we'll compare your GPA to the historic, or benchmark, GPA for your school. If you meet or exceed that GPA, you'll be designated ELC and we'll add a note to your application.
