What to Expect
During your Connection Center appointment, you will meet with our Re-engagement Counselor. Together, you will review your educational history, transcripts, personal goals and potential barriers to achieving those goals. You do not need to bring any paperwork or documents to this meeting unless there is something important you would like to share with the counselor.
Outcomes of a Connection Center appointment are student driven and based on individual situations. Some students may decide to remain at their current school placement or apply to a school of choice or alternative education program.
Out of District Students
We primarily assist students who are residents of Highline Public Schools. If you currently live outside of the Highline Public Schools boundaries, but are interested in attending one of our schools, please visit our Transfer webpage for additional information on submitting inter-district transfer requests. For information about other alternative programs in King County outside of Highline Schools boundaries, please refer to the Reconnect to Opportunity website.
