Welcome 

Opening The Door to Your Future

Much like your future, this website is a work in progress. Please be sure to check back frequently to see what's been added. The goal of the C&CC is to provide resources for you to plan for your future and your transition out of high school into whatever comes next for you, whether that's a four- or two-year college, trade school, military service, or employment. 

Follow the College & Career Center on Instagram


Schedule an Appointment

You can now schedule a appointment with the College & Career Center directly through the C&CC Calendar. Please choose a time and indicate what you need to discuss. Schedule at least a day in advance, so that I can send a call slip. Be sure to make up any assignments you may miss while away from class. 

Community Service

Students are expected to complete 10 hours of Community Service during their senior year in order to graduate. It is highly recommended, however, that students work towards 100 hours of community service during their high school years because nearly all scholarship and many college applications will ask about a students experience in volunteering. It's a great way to give back to one's community, as well as learning about various possible career paths. Check out this website if you are interested in local volunteer opportunities! 

Calistoga High School Alumni Association

Calistoga High School Graduates are encouraged to join the Calistoga High Alumni Association. These dedicated CHS Grads have donated thousands in scholarships to graduating seniors, and they also organize reunions that all former graduates are encouraged to attend.
