Here's What's Coming...
Greetings! January marks the beginning of a new semester, and there is a LOT of activity on the way. Here are some dates to remember...
FAFSA Night We will once again be hosting Don Shade from PHEAA right here in the HS Library on February 5th at 6:30pm. This is an opportunity for you to fill out your FAFSA online along with us. Bring your financial documents (that means anything you would use to fill out your tax forms). We will provide laptops and internet access. You can submit right on the spot and be finished with your financial aid paperwork! Please call 326-3713 to register so we have the appropriate number of resources available!
Watch your mailbox for a letter regarding some changes to our Block V policies.
Scholarships are available for our seniors, and we receive new ones quite often now. Please come down to the Guidance office to review our file, and be sure to check your senior newsletters for brief descriptions.
Junior meetings will begin soon! We love hearing about your plans for the future and helping you take advantage of every opportunity to meet your goals. If you are interested in sitting in with your students, please call 326-3713 to set up an appointment.
Focus Groups will begin soon with the rest of our freshmen class. We meet with students in small groups as a part of Foundations for Success as a way to get to know our ninth grade students and answer any questions they may have about course selection, future planning, grading or other HS policies, and anything else they'd like to know about our goings-on.
Summer Opportunities for all students are rolling in! Some are local offerings, but many programs are career-based and are offered by colleges in PA. We currently have information on "camps" for students interested in pursuing careers in education, arts, and business.
Also, don't forget about PA Governor's Schools of Excellence! These programs are incredible opportunities for current sophomores and juniors in a variety of areas (Health Care, Education, Business, International Affairs, Arts, Ag Science, Info Technology, and Sciences). See their website at http://www.pgse.org for applications, descriptions, and general information. Be careful of deadlines! Some have already passed!
As always, please let us know if you have questions or concerns!
