Career Center Newsletter - week of May 9
Seniors
- We are quickly approaching graduation. Please make sure to keep an eye on emails from Principal Dr. Merrell for everything regarding Senior Awards, and Graduation.
- Below is a link "Seniors - Form to list Scholarships and Awards". Click on that link to fill out the form showing all the OUTSIDE (not given through or by Enumclaw High School) awards and scholarships that you have received. The yellow section is the example of how to fill it out. Be sure to either share by May 27 via email with me, deanne_fritschy@enumclaw.wednet.edu or print and turn in.
Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen
- We have now received approval to re-open our high school for SAT testing on Saturdays starting next school year 2022-2023. Test dates fill up fast so be sure to check the College Board SAT registration website often to see if you can register for next year.
- Again ACT and SAT test are college "entrance" exams. Not all colleges require them. You can take one or the other, colleges accept both.
- There are links to registration and practice exams under the resource section of this newsletter.
For more tips: check all the resources below including check lists for each grade.
