Schedule for the Week
West Leyden Junior Jumpstart
Attention all Junior Students and Families!
Now is the time to jumpstart your postsecondary planning! The Junior Jumpstart program provides a way for students to explore all postsecondary options available to them upon graduation from Leyden. This year, Junior Jumpstart has been transformed into a website/resource full of information regarding 4-year colleges and universities, 2-year colleges, the trades, the military, financial aid, and much more. Please take some time to watch the videos, browse the resources, and use this as a reference throughout your postsecondary planning. Please contact your counselor with any questions.

About Women's History Month
Women’s History Month had its origins as a national celebration in 1981 when Congress passed Pub. L. 97-28 which authorized and requested the President to proclaim the week beginning March 7, 1982 as “Women’s History Week.” Throughout the next five years, Congress continued to pass joint resolutions designating a week in March as “Women’s History Week.” In 1987 after being petitioned by the National Women’s History Project, Congress passed Pub. L. 100-9 which designated the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History Month.” Between 1988 and 1994, Congress passed additional resolutions requesting and authorizing the President to proclaim March of each year as Women’s History Month. Since 1995, presidents have issued a series of annual proclamations designating the month of March as “Women’s History Month.” These proclamations celebrate the contributions women have made to the United States and recognize the specific achievements women have made over the course of American history in a variety of fields.
