College Visits and Your High School
Most high schools will give you an excused absence for college visits. We will provide you with a letter from Crossroads for Kids letting them know that you were with us to visit a college. It is important that you also tell your parents/guardians about your plans. We can also give you a letter for your parents if they want more information about your visit.
