Mid-Year Exams start TOMORROW
Updated Scholarship List - 01/20/23
CLICK HERE for a list of current scholarships!
Many of the scholarships listed are online scholarships. The general rule is if the scholarship listed has a link that means the application is online. If the scholarship on the list does not have an online link then the paper application is in Guidance in the filing cabinet under the "Scholarship" sign! (To the right of Ms. Gorman's desk)
For every scholarship you apply for you will need to fill out a Blue Transcript Request form. Those forms are available in Guidance on the table in front of Ms. Gorman's desk. If you are not able to come to Guidance you can email Ms. Gorman @ joanngorman@npsri.net and she will forward you an electronic fillable form.

Teens will review program plans for summer, making edits and additions if they wish, and advise Ms. Becky's multiple questions surrounding the PS4.
