SAT Info and More!

Happy Friday Everyone!

We have a lot to get to as the semester is coming up so make sure we stay focused today.  We only have 5 days left before semester grades are to be turned in.

First, I would like to announce a program called the "Admit One College Prep Academy" hosted at the Logan Heights Branch Library.  This is a FREE 9 week program geared towards helping you achieve your college goals.  Classes on financial aid, SAT/ACT prep, and more.  You must apply by February 18th.

Application & Schedule

SAT's are coming up in March so you should start looking to see if you are eligible for a fee waiver and begin registering for the test.

Next, we have the rest of our exhibitions coming up next week.  Remember, presentations should run about 40 minutes long.  You should be going into details to explain work in each subject and demonstrate your knowledge in each area.  Your teachers from other classes and administrators will be stopping by to view your presentations so make sure you put forth a sincere effort.

If you are finished with your exhibition you should spend your time reading in class and writing your book review.  Many of you have a lot of reading left to finish and need to get started right away.  Completed book reviews are due on the 24th.

Your Age of Imperialism history presentation will be moved back to Friday the 24th.  With this extra time I want to ensure that you all are presenting QUALITY work.  Make sure your project has at least 10 slides.  Your projects focus should be placed on American intervention and its affects.  Since you will be providing your fellow students with this information make sure it is in depth and informational. 

Finally, LTI projects need to be turned in to me for ALL internships and essays for those without.  Make sure you have a hard copy to give to me which represents work or a project you have been working on at your internship, and can give an in depth explanation of the project.

Make sure you are staying on top of your grades before the semester.  Remember Monday is a holiday so have a good long weekend and make sure to take home any work that needs to be completed.
