The end of the school year is approaching and deadlines for many scholarships are upon us! Mrs. Crowson has the scholarship applications, but students need to come by her office, pick up those applications and complete them.

Spring is here and that means it’s the best time for juniors to sign up to take the SAT. It may seem that your senior year and college applications are still far away, but taking the test now will ensure that your scores will be available in time to decide if you need to retake the test. (If you wait until fall to take the SAT, then you might not have enough time to retake the test if you need to!)

Juniors and Seniors should also visit the Go Center website not only for scholarship information, but to check out summer programs that may be of interest to you.

Important Dates to keep in mind:

SAT: May 2 test—deadline to sign up is March 31

SAT: June 16 test—deadline to sign up is May 5

There is an office located inside the Comm.Arts main office that many see, but do not know. But it is a place that our students become well-acquainted with during their Senior year: the “Go Center,” with Mrs. Valeria Crowson as its director. She is the College/Career Readiness Tech here at Comm. Arts, one of the many people who help students on their road to college.

Mrs. Crowson helps each student locate the colleges and universities that fit their dreams, needs and plans. Then she helps them to research what those particular schools have to offer, in order to help each student make the best choice. Mrs. Crowson not only has  a wealth of knowledge, she will jump through hoops helping our students get into the college that is best for them. And even more important, Mrs. Crowson is the go-to source for precious information about scholarships for seniors (and sometimes even juniors).
