SENIORS: Nearly all of the local scholarship applications have arrived and are ready for you to pick up and complete. There are about five that I am still waiting to receive--keep checking in.
MOST of these scholarship applications are due between April 15 and May 8. It is YOUR JOB to stay on top of this process. Since you have 6 to 8 weeks to complete these, there is really no excuse for procrastinating and doing a sloppy "rush" job just before the deadline.
I will be happy to assist you in any way I can. Stop by my office and check 'em out! (PALMER)

ALL 7th, 8th, and 10th grade students: You will be taking the MontCAS tests next week. All tests will be during second and third blocks.

10th graders will test in Mr. Smith's room.
7th graders will test on Tuesday and Wednesday. 8th and 10th graders will test on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. IF YOU MISS ANY OF THESE TESTS, you will have to make them up the following week. PLEASE do everything in your power to be here those days so you don't have to miss other classes doing make-up tests. (PALMER)
