FCCS graduates pursue a variety of paths after graduation.  Most of our students enroll in colleges and universities to continue their studies while others choose to serve in ministry, go directly into the work force or serve in the military.  Foothills is pleased to provide information to our high school students to assist them in decision making for their future including opportunities for career counseling and information on scholarship opportunities.

The resources found here are for our students to utilize in seeking and planning their next steps after completing their education at Foothills.
