GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
Seniors: If you did not turn in your cap and gown order form last week, please visit https://www.herffjones.
Seniors: You may be interested in the IU Groups Scholars Program which can provide financial aid to attend IU as well as opportunities not available to all IU students. See the email from Mr. Faust that was sent Tuesday, October 19 for information. If you would like to apply to the Groups Scholars Program, you need to speak with Mr. Faust immediately.
Seniors: November 1st is a common priority deadline for many colleges including IU and Purdue. Although you can still apply after November 1st, you must apply by November 1st in order to have full consideration for merit scholarships at that college. Keep in mind that in addition to submitting an application, the college must also receive your transcript by the deadline. If you are using the Common Application, your counselor cannot submit your transcript until after you submit your application. Therefore, you need to submit your application by 3:00 p.m. on November 1st in order to guarantee that your counselor will submit your transcript by the deadline. If you are applying via the college’s regular application, be sure to request your transcript via Parchment ASAP: Parchment How-To Video.
Sophomores: Sophomore scheduling appointments for students whose last names begin with A-M will be posted across from the cafeteria and outside of the back entrance to the office this Friday. Be sure to check for your appointment date/time so that you will be prepared. Students whose last names begin with N-Z will be posted some time next week.
Veterans Day Program: We will be having a virtual Veterans Day Program on November 10th. If you have a family member(s) you would like to be recognized in our program, please fill out this form.
All submissions should be turned in by November 8th.
