LET'S PLAN YOUR FUTURE! ALL GRADE LEVELS!

Do you need help figuring out your next step? Do you have questions about the college application process? Are you wondering where you stand for your GPA and test scores for admission? Are you interested in discussing trade/tech careers or military? Email me at kfaysash@pasco.k12.fl.us so we can meet in person or via Zoom to create a personalized plan.

FREE SCHOOL DAY SAT FOR JUNIORS ON MARCH 24TH!

On Wednesday, March 24th, the District School Board of Pasco County and Wesley Chapel High School will offer the SAT free of charge to all 11th grade students. The SAT will be college-reportable and may also help students who have not yet met Algebra and/or FSA Reading graduation requirements. All juniors are automatically registered to test. Students should bring a state or school picture ID to confirm their identity with their room proctor. We also recommend that students bring a scientific or graphing calculator for the math section of the SAT. Please be at school by 7:25 am—rosters will be posted outside of the media center.

VIRTUAL COLLEGE AND CAREER FAIR (PRESENTATIONS ON DEMAND!)
