In an ongoing effort to provide you with up to date and engaging college and career readiness resources, I have provided below the ISACorps description with an attachment of all ISACorp's presentations for your consideration. These opportunities are available to you (and your students) for free by simply contacting Katrina Morales or Alyssa Humbles and arranging with them a good time for an ISACorps member to come out and present to your teens.
What is ISACorps?
Sponsored by the State of Illinois, ISACorps is one of Illinois Student Assistance Commission's (ISAC’s) most exciting and dynamic initiatives, whose main mission is to expand ISAC’s college access and outreach programs and services to help students navigate the process of applying to and entering college. Previously named the College Illinois! Corps, the ISACorps is funded by the U.S. Department of Education’s College Access Challenge Grant Program.

Additionally, I have attached the "What's Next Illinois" Student Sign-In Info. Sheet for teens to log on to What's Next Illinois to begin planning their post secondary next steps.
What is "What's Next Illinois?"
What's Next Illinois is an interactive online tool for college planning and preparation. This site has been specifically designed to help all residents of the State of Illinois in planning and realizing their Post Secondary next steps for college or a career. There have been additional tools and resources built-in for Chicago Public School students.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions about these resources. Thank you for distributing them or making them available within your programs.
Sincerely,
Mark
