All teacher recommendation requests should be completed by now.
Grade 11
Make-up registration for the PSAT took place on Wednesday for those students who missed registration last week. The PSAT will take place next Wednesday, October 14. Students who are taking the test need to report to the MPB by 7:15am.
Grade 10
10th graders next week will being doing their second Sophomore Seminar. In the first one, we looked at students self-reported strengths through the VIA Character Survey. This time, we’ll do a “Career Interest Profiler” to find out what kind of professions people like your son or daughter do for a living. By combining the strengths and interests of the students, we hope that it can give our students some help in thinking about what sort of careers might be fulfilling and successful for them. It might even help them to choose their classes for 11th grade in the second semester!
Grade 9
Keep up the good work 9th graders. We hope you enjoyed your first IASAS, whether as a spectator or a participant.
