In December and January, Juniors (the Class of 2025) will take a step in determining what their senior schedule will look like.  All juniors will have to decide whether they are going to enroll in one of our exciting seminar courses or apply to undertake a mentorship with a professional in the area.  On Friday, 12/1/23, Juniors will be added to a Schoology Group that will provide information about the Seminar/Mentorship selection and application process.  As the process moves forward in December, students can help their parents view all material on this site.  Juniors are encouraged to start thinking about this decision now, and parents are encouraged to discuss this decision with their students. 

After materials are released by the first week of December, anyone who has questions about the process should reach out to Mr.  Cook ([email protected]).  The deadline for completing the Seminar/Mentorship selection and application process will be Friday, January 12, 2024.
