Senior Portfolio
If you have 10 or fewer English credits to graduate, please see Mrs. Kelley ASAP so that she can enroll you in Senior Portfolio. Additionally, if you have less than 60 credits to graduate you should also see her even if you have more than 10 credits in English. Please talk to your HR teacher and English teacher(s) if you have questions.
Please don't wait until you're finished with all your English to start the Senior Portfolio. NOTE: Senior Portfolio can also go to GUIDANCE.

FAFSA Requirement
NOTE: If your parents are not comfortable doing this with us, the FAFSA can be completed at home. All you need to do is bring in the "Congratulations, your submitted your FAFSA" email to Mrs. Lee-Briggs. Students will earn Guidance credit for completing this task.
Typing.com - Have you taken the three-minute quiz?
Our district has purchased a subscription for typing.com for all students. You can log into the program through CLEVER and take a short 3 minute test to see your typing speed. You can also use this program to earn Guidance/Elective credit. Another use for a typing score is to include it on job applications or resumes. Typing is a skill that will help you in whatever you do. Talk to your homeroom teacher about getting started on typing.com.
FOOD HANDLERS: Make sure you sign up with Mrs. Luckino or Mrs. Seacat.
