Grad Meetings

Grads are signing up on my office door for their FIRST GRAD MEETING of the year!
I will go through your transcript with you, look at courses required for graduation, post secondary plans and Portfolio building.
You should be looking for THREE reference letters in the next couple of months (one school, one work, one community), and get your resume updated.
If you are not signed up for any extracurricular activities, strat looking! Also, you should be considering volunteer work in the community.
Scholarships and prizes are awarded based on academics, extracurricular AND community work. You don't have to have the BEST marks, you should be consistent and well-balanced.
NBCC applications are due NOVEMBER 1st...let's get on it!!
Universities won't need theirs until January.
Parents are welcome to call or email me with any questions or concerns, too!
