Course Card Collection
Counselors are collecting course cards for next year’s classes. We’ve gotta catch ’em all!
8th grade students should have all course cards in to Mrs. Pinsky — if yours is not submitted, please turn it in now. If you have not chosen electives, your electives will be picked for you. Set yourself up for success in high school by selecting classes that support your interests.
6th & 7th grade students will receive their cards this week– they are due upon our return from Spring Break.
5th grade students’ course card choices are due to elementary schools on Friday 3/18

8th grade Career Lesson
During the weeks of February 16 – 23, all 8th graders will have Career exploration lessons and create accounts that will be used through their senior year for college and/or career planning.
The lesson focuses on interest and ability surveys and possible career clusters that best align with the student’s interests and skills. Students can then explore the array of careers, incomes, and education requirements for each career.
