PICC Committee

PICC - The Planning and Information for College and Career Committee

The Planning and Information for College and Career Committee (PICC) is a volunteer group of parents who assist the North Andover High School Guidance Department in the planning, researching, and implementation of college and career related activities and events at NAHS. The committee began 16 years ago with a small group of parents who were going through the college search process with their own seniors. They found the sharing of information helped them better navigate this process. There are now over 30 members on the PICC Committee and that number continues to grow as new parents sign on to help with this effort. Some of last year’s PICC/Guidance events included the College Rep Visit Program, College Coffee Talks for parents, Alumni Luncheon and Seminar for Seniors, College Bound Juniors Night and Scholarship Knight.

The PICC committee welcomes new members and encourages parents of freshmen and sophomores to consider joining. As colleges become more and more competitive, it’s never too early to learn about the ins and outs of the college search process. If you are interested in learning more about PICC please e-mail them at picc@northandoverpublicschools.com.

PICC, the Planning and Information for College Committee is a volunteer group of parents who assist the NAHS Guidance Dept. in the planning and execution of college related events throughout the year.  Without the volunteer efforts of PICC, many of these events would not be possible.  

The Planning and Information for College and Career Committee – (PICC), hosts a series of College Coffee Talks for parents of all NAHS college-bound students. These talks give parents going through the college search process with their teenagers, an opportunity to meet and ask questions of parents who have been through the process before.
