Grade Level Information
Class of 2021
This month I planned to visit each grade to work on Missouri Connections. This is easier done in person, so I have moved this to next semester when we return to in-seat learning. Each student has a username and password. During these class meetings I will have them explore interests, career clusters, occupations, schools, and learn more about the cost of living. I look forward to helping them explore their interests and turn those interests into real-life plans.
Please continue to look for new scholarships added to the Google Sheet. I have added a lot of new scholarships throughout the past few weeks.
Also, if your student is interested in retaking the ACT, please see the link below for registration dates and deadlines.
At the end of the semester I will send out A+ Scholarship Program progress letters to each student discussing each student's GPA, attendance, and other A+ eligibility information.
If your student is needing additional help with academic and career planning, please let me know.

I am missing A+ documents from many students establishing that they are participating in the program. If you are unsure if your student is needing to return A+ documents, please reach out and I can let you know what I am missing. This information will also be noted on their letter.
