College Acceptance Letters
Please bring your college acceptance letters to Mrs. Adams in the guidance office. We will make a copy and give you back the original.
End of Year Transcripts
The college that you will be attending in the fall will require that your high school sends them your final transcript. You will need to provide Mrs. Adams a stamped, adressed envelope to this college! Failure to provide this envelope could delay your registration process at college.
Financial Aid
Be sure to get your FAFSA form completed and either mailed or electronically sent. College deadlines for receiving this information are fast approaching. Also, check to see if your college requires any additional information. Many schools have their own institutional forms in addition to the FAFSA! Apply online at: www.fafsa.ed.gov
Scholarships
If you want your name and scholarship to be noted in the
Graduation Program, you must bring your scholarship award letter to Mrs. Adams in the guidance office!
Scholarships are posted on our website according to the month in which it is due. These web pages are updated as new scholarships deadlines approach.
