For continued support for the College Placement and Retention Coordinator at the School of Tourism and Hospitality (“STH”), a NYC Department of Education Career and Technical Education school serving 300 students in the Bronx. The Coordinator provides intense support to STH students during the 3 critical phases of college access — acceptance, matriculation and first-year completion. The Coordinator will handle a caseload of 50 juniors and seniors, providing one-on-one post-secondary counseling, college and career readiness courses, college tours and assistance in applying for and transitioning into college and other post-secondary programs. The Counselor will work with STH staff to develop personal development plans for students to ensure they remain on-track to graduate high school, matriculate to and persist in college. Their College Retention Program is designed to increase college persistence/retention rates by providing on-campus support and educational advocacy.
