Day 100!!!!



Good morning! I hope you all are well. Today, February 12, is the 100th day of school. We are just through the halfway point of the year so I wanted to reach out and inform you of things to come. 

Community Service:First, I want to thank all of you that donated to our blanket drive in December. With your help, we were able to make and deliver 173 blankets to children staying at Boston Childrens Hospital. Tomorrow, February 13th we will be going the Torigian Center and will be facilitating a Valentines day lunch for our local senior citizens. Students will also have a pizza party afterwards. This should be a fun event for all. 

College Applications:We have helped many of or seniors complete college applications. Several students have already been accepted to several colleges and universities. We are in the process of setting up a trip to North Shore Community College to complete their application and do their placement testing. North shore is also offering the following for all students:

1.  Scholarships for Incoming NSCC Students!  The 2019 incoming scholarships are now available on the website -  http://www.northshore.edu/scholarships/high-school.html .  Take a look at them and please encourage students to apply.  All scholarships for incoming students have a deadline of March 29, 2019.
