Important Upcoming Events

Thanks to everyone who participated in the PSAT today.  It went well and I am excited to hear your thoughts about the new SAT style of questions. There are several key dates coming up that I hope you have saved on your calendar.

- Tomorrow, Thursday, October 15th: Assembly Bell Schedule
Ok, I will be honest, this isn't really an important date you need to have saved, but I wanted to make sure you knew about tomorrow's bell schedule because it is definitely different than normal.
1st Period: 7:45 - 8:30
2nd Period: 8:35 - 9:20
Assembly: 9:25 - 10:00
3rd Period: 10:05 - 10:55
4th Period: 11:00 - 11:45
5th Period: 11:50 - 12:35
6th Period: 12:40 - 1:25
7th Period: 1:30 - 2:15
8th Period: 2:20 - 3:05

- Thursday, October 22nd: College Information Night, 7:00pm
This evening is primarily geared for junior students and parents, but those in younger years may also be interested in getting a jump start to know what to expect ahead.  This College Information Night will focus primarily on 4-year colleges with some information about 2-year colleges as well.  (Parents, please note that we schedule this evening on a conference night so that you can participate in conferences and then attend this information session and not have to give up two separate nights.)

- Monday, October 26th: Application Completion Workshop, 5:30 - 7:00pm
Seniors are in the midst of completing their college applications.  While I am willing to review your essays or go over your applications at any point in time, this evening is set aside specifically to allow you to finish up your applications if you have a November 1st deadline or to get started if you are dealing with a later deadline and haven't started your application yet.  We will be meeting in Room 205.

-  ALSO COMING SOON: Career Pathways and Two-Year College Information Night
This evening is for any students wanting to explore options for their future related to career searching and the programs and opportunities available at two-year colleges as well as technical and certificate programs.  Information about resources to help students with career exploration and presenters from local two-year programs will be on hand to help answer questions and provide insight.  We are currently working to finalize the date with the 2-year college participants, but we anticipate it happening during November.  Keep watching the blog for more information.
