Community News
What's happening?
Sophomores: Counselors are currently in the process of registering students for their junior year. Please discuss with your student their course selections and encourage them to schedule an appointment with their counselor if they have not yet had a meeting. Deadline 11/9.
Juniors: Registration will begin Nov. 27. Counselors will be meeting individually with your student. Great time of year to consider the post high school plan. College, trades, military?
Seniors: Be aware of priority filing dates for college applications. Paper transcript request forms must be filled out before transcripts will be sent. Please give your counselor and teachers two weeks to process application paperwork and recommendations.
