"The day to day responsibilities of counselors are absolutely incredible and this is particularly true at high schools with limited resources," says Mary Ontiveros, Associate Vice President of Enrollment and Access for Colorado State University. Naviance has worked with and supported the counselors from these schools to help them maximize their use of this valuable tool, WorkspaceK12. The Alliance School Program is a partnership for education that unites students, faculty, and the community in a common goal. Through this partnership, CSU and the Alliance schools using Naviance, plan to positively impact the culture in the local community. Uniting the community to envision education beyond high school and send a greater number of students to college is one of the major goals of the Alliance School Program. "By providing Naviance tools to high schools in the Alliance Program," says Mary, "we are confident that the counselors’ ability to work more effectively with individual students will be immediately realized. Through Naviance, counselors learn about their students’ interests and goals and students learn more precisely about the intricacies of the college admissions process. We are proud to be able to assist caring professionals in their work with students." Schools across Colorado currently in the CSU Alliance Program are: Adams City High School in Commerce City; Centauri High School in La Jara; Central High School in Pueblo; Fort Lupton High School in Fort Lupton; Hinkley High School in Aurora; John Mall Junior-Senior High School in Walsenburg; Montezuma-Cortez High School in Cortez; Rocky Ford High School in Rocky Ford; Sierra High School in Colorado Springs; Trinidad High School in Trinidad.
