FROM THE DIRECTOR

Happy February to all of our students and parents!  This officially begins the busy season for Excel TECC.  I want to personally thank every parent and student who attended our annual Opportunity Day/Night on January 31, 2013 and the Open House/Site Visits on February 5, 2013.  Over 1000 sophomores and 400 parents visited our 22 programs and the feedback was fantastic.  We continue to receive applications through Applitrack and counselors are now sending over transcripts, discipline and attendance.  I encourage prospective sophomores to be prepared on their Interview Day next Thursday, February 14, 2013.  Dress formally, be on time, speak clearly, give good eye contact and show our staff why you deserve to be one of the elite!  Interviewees will find out if they have been selected for a program on March 7, 2013.  We wish you the best of luck.
