Well, it's that time of year again. I hope that everyone enjoyed their summer and had an opportunity to relax and regroup for the exicting 2005-2006 school year. Seniors should be making the college office their second home this year. Stop by and say hi. I will begin to schedule senior meetings starting Wednesday, September 14th. When you sign up - you should be further along in the process then you were last time we met. IF YOU NEVER HAD A JUNIOR MEETING you must still fill out a junior packet before you can meet with Ms. Binder. If you need a copy - come to the college office ASAP.
SENIORS, if you are an artist and have some work you would like to display in my office, I would be glad to shamelessly rave about it when college representatives come to visit. A list of visiting representatives will be available in your advisories and online very soon. It will be revised daily so be sure to listen to announcements for the most up to date information.
I know that everyone has different feelings about the college process from excitement to fear and everything in between. I am here to help you navigate this difficult time - we will get through it together and before you know it I will be taking pictures of you in your caps and gowns.
As you start this year, let me share with you some advice from the class of 2004. Click HERE to find out what the class of 2004 said when asked what advice they would give future seniors.
For those of you who are planning to take the October SAT - unfortunately the regular registration deadline has passed but the late deadline (with additional fee) is September 14th. For the calendar of SAT dates and fees go to http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/sat/calenfees.html
MARK YOUR CALENDAR - For those of you who like to plan ahead, there will be a Financial Aid Night for senior families on October 26th(time and location to be determined). There will be a general college information night in early October and I will give you that date as soon as it is finalized.
Do not forget - senior year shouldn't be all about the college process. There is lots to be learned and fun to be had as well. Here's to a fabulous year! See ya soon in B-10! Cheers to the class of 2005!!
Much more to come ... please check back regularly.
