RHS Weekly Update
February 24, 2023
New This Week
Reminder that Monday, February 27th is another White Day, and there is no school on Wednesday, March 1st (teacher PD day).
RHS Newsletter
Each week, our students produce a weekly newsletter to share all the wonderful things going on at Romeo High School. Please take a few minutes to read through.
Freshmen: 9GA Pathway Tours
On Monday and Tuesday next week, 9th grade students will be visiting RHS to learn more about their Top 4 pathway choices. Later in the week, they will work in their Seminar class to narrow down these choices to their Top 3 in preferential order. The pathway reveal ceremony (when students learn what academy and pathway they will be in next year) will be on Friday, March 10th.
Sophomores & Juniors: 2023-2034 Scheduling
The snow/ice days threw off our 2023-2024 scheduling timeline a bit. Juniors and sophomores, you should have turned in your scheduling sheet by now. However, if you haven't, bring it to your next English class. Counselors will be in English classes all next week helping students enter this information into PowerSchool so we can begin creating your 2023-2024 schedules.
Juniors: SAT PREP REMINDER
Wolverine Tutors, a volunteer organization through the University of Michigan, is still offering free SAT PREP/Tutoring virtually. They have groups for both SAT math and SAT Reading/Writing.
If interested please complete the attached google form as soon as possible. See the attached flier for more information. Interest Form
Seniors: Local Scholarships
Local Scholarships for RHS Seniors are currently posted on the counseling website. Local scholarships have paper applications that are due in the BEI office by 3:00 on March 10th. Four County Foundation Scholarships and Sandbox Foundation Scholarships are due on March 1.
Reminders
