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!

GRAD SCHOLARSHIP MEETINGS!

I have been around to all grade 12 classes, and gave out SCHOLARSHIP packages to those who wanted them.
IF you are going to any Post Secondary school next year, YOU SHOULD HAVE A PACKAGE!!!

Look over the package, and get yor questions ready.
I will meet with each of you over the next 2-3 weeks...BUT YOU MUST SIGN UP ON MY DOOR for an appointment time. It will take about 30-45 minutes. It is very helpful if you sign up with a friend, so I can get through the appointments quicker.

I will be away for Parent-Teacher Interviews. Parents are invited to call me anytime, 662-7004, or email me at brownhea@nbed.nb.ca  with any questions or concerns regarding graduation. (this applies for the remainder of the year...not just around P-T time!)


Also...reminder to let me know where you need updated transcripts sent. I know some of you have applied to 3-4 places, so this may change by June.
(I'll keep a list on my door)
