Overall, college is currently on the minds of many seniors here at Lewis Cass. Also, the majority of students have already decided on college majors or at least have an idea of what they hope to study. If a student does not know what they want to study, they can take a career interest test online to help them make a decision. Knowing what you are interested in helps a student decide what they hope to major in, thus making it easier to decide which college they should attend. So, seniors, it is time to start thinking and planning your future. Best of Luck!
