The Hopewell Valley Central High School counseling office staff uses a variety of resources in assisting our students with college admissions planning.   However, Family Connection is Central High School's preferred management tool for all of your internet college search and application tasks because it provides actual data on recent HVCHS grads, and much of its functionality provides students and their families with  opportunities to interact with counselors in helpful and productive ways. Your school counselor will use this program exclusively in keeping track of all of your college-related activities. We strongly encourage you and your family to use this wonderful tool!
