Welcome to the new school year, under these current circumstances! Hello, my name is Roderick Booker and I am the College and Career Access Specialist for the Evergreen High School. This will be my seventh year and I am excited to serve your students this year. I am located in the College and Career Center here on the Evergreen High School Campus.

This all is done to help equip your students for post-secondary education whether it be a two-year college, workforce, apprenticeships, Internships, military, four-year University or professional technical schools. I work also with a great team of other community partners in the College and Career Center:
