MD Guidance & Counseling - December 2017
10th Grade Monarchs
Can you believe it? We are almost at the end of the first semester!
Your Fall Semester finals will be held December 18, 19, 20, 21. Be sure to check for the exam schedule to know which dates you will be taking which tests.
Remember, first semester grades are important they are used to determine junior year classes. Please check your Blackboard and Aeries Parent and Student Portals to make sure that you have all your assignments turned in and that you have made up any tests you may have missed.
Last month, we introduced Naviance at our Sophomore Parent/Student Night. Don't forget to log in to your personal account to access helpful college planning tools and resources. You can begin building a list of colleges that you are thinking about applying to, located in the “Colleges” section of your Naviance account or try the "SuperMatch".
If you have any questions or concerns about your classes, please communicate with your teachers. Asking for help when needed and advocating for yourself are skills that we hope our students start to build! Teachers are available to students during office hours and their email addresses can be found on the MD staff page. If you'd like some extra support, feel free to let your counselor know.
