COVID-19 STUDENT SURVEY
We will be participating in the COVID-19 Student Survey in order to gather data about our students and support needed as they re-enter in-person learning.
More information from OSPI about the survey is below:
The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI), Washington State Department of Health (DOH), Health Care Authority (HCA) and a team at the University of Washington (UW) have made the “COVID-19 Student Survey” available for schools to administer this spring.
In an effort to support schools and communities, state agencies partnered to support this effort to collect information about young people’s experiences over this past year during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The survey is anonymous, voluntary, and for students in grades 6 through 12.
Topics on the survey include but are not limited to social support, remote learning experiences, mental health, physical health, COVID-19 precautions, and substance use.
The survey will be scheduled sometime between March 8-March 26.

VIRTUAL COLLEGE TOURS
COVID has complicated the college visit process, but virtual visits are a safe alternative. Online tours and info sessions help bridge the gap when students can’t check out a campus in person.
- Many colleges are offering virtual tours on their websites. The Washington GEAR UP program has compiled a list of online college tours that will be updated as more sites add these resources.
- GEAR UP also offers a series of virtual campus visits. These video presentations highlight colleges across the state, including a number of public and private four-year universities and two-year community and technical colleges.
- For schools with no virtual tours available, consider doing an online scavenger hunt. Use the form to research, compare choices, and find a good fit.
LIBRARY HOURS
The library is open on Mondays and Fridays from 10:00 - 11:30 a.m. and Wednesdays from 9:30 a.m. -1:30 p.m.
Students need to be screened in at the front door before going up to the third floor to the library.
This is a great time to return novels and textbooks that students are no longer using. We have a drop off box just inside the front doors of the building.
IS YOUR CHILD INTERESTED IN RUNNING START?
If your child is interested in doing Running Start next year, they should plan to attend one of the college virtual information sessions. Students that are juniors and seniors next year are eligible and should apply for running start in April.

HIGH SCHOOL AND BEYOND PLAN INFORMATION
All students are required to complete a high school and beyond plan by the end of their senior year. Mr. Short sent information to all students about this requirement to their student email address.
· Go to the Your School’s website.
· Click on For Students, then click on Xello Student Login
· Log In with your School Email Account
How to Access Lessons in Xello
Class of 2021:
There are 7 required lessons to complete in Xello. It is extremely important that students have current information especially in the experiences section and goals. When they ask teachers for letters of recommendation, the teachers will ask students to share their Xello profile with them, as they will be able to easily pull information from there to include in the letter.
Classes of 2022, 2023, and 2024:
Once you log into the program, scroll down to lessons, and complete the Inventory Review Lesson. This will be a huge help as the data we gather from the assessments in Xello, your saved career clusters in Xello, and saved Careers of interest will be used to assist us in developing courses for next year to better meet your needs.
