Crosby Scholars: High School
Grades 9-11 - October 2020
Greetings from Ms. Montgomery, High School Program Coordinator of Iredell County Crosby Scholars
It's hard to believe that October is already here! It seems like time is flying by faster and faster, especially during a global pandemic. The virtual life has become our new normal. In an uncertain time like this, we must focus on what we can control. All of us must play our part by being an encouraging and positive voice to others. Crosby Scholars is playing our part by continuing to support our students and families through virtual programming. Please read through this newsletter to learn about our High School Program events for the month of October.
