FHN Counseling Connection
May 2015
The Final Countdown!
With just over one week left in the school year, the excitement and anticipation in the air is palpable. The hallways are abuzz with students making summer plans. Some are preparing for a new, exciting life after high school. Others are looking forward to summer jobs, vacations, A+ tutoring, or fun times spent with friends and family.
The FHN Counselors would like to remind students and families that, while these last few days are indeed exciting, they are also very critical to a student's academic success. Final exams are 20% of a student's semester grade and will be given on May 19-21. Teachers, counselors, and administrators are diligently working with students to help support their academic success. Parents, we truly appreciate your partnership as you continue to check your students' grades and encourage them to study hard and finish strong! [Image courtesy of scottchan at FreeDigitalPhotos.net]

Noteworthy News from the Counselors
- NOW ENROLLING FOR SUMMER SCHOOL! If your child failed a required class, please plan to have him or her attend Summer School. Registration packets are available in the Guidance Office. Please click here for more information.
- The summer between Junior and Senior year is a great time to visit prospective colleges and polish your academic resume. Take advantage of volunteer and leadership opportunities, job shadow, explore online information about post-secondary institutions and scholarships. When we see you again in the Fall, your counselor will meet with you individually to discuss your post-secondary plans. Don't wait...start working on this now!
Looking ahead...the PSAT will be offered at FHN on October 28, 2015.
