Attention Grads!
There will be a quick GT session Friday April 5th in The Learning Commons to discuss GT and the upcoming interviews. Interviews are happening on April 16th! Your specific interview time is posted on the bright yellow papers around the school. Please see Ms. Gillam or Ms.Lo if there are any questions, comments or concerns.
Please be aware that the computers throughout the building are being upgraded beginning on Monday, April 8th. Therefore, our server will be down for extended periods for a minimum of two days and possibly for the full week. This means that we will be unable to send the absence phone/email notifications to advise when students are absent and have not been excused. We will also be unable to update attendance during this time, will not have consistent access to the phone or email and students will not be able to connect to wifi.
We appreciate your patience as we work through this important upgrade for staff and students.
Don’t forget about completing your Grad Transition Package Portfolio. If you have not completed Part A or have any questions please come see Ms. Gillam or Ms. Lo ASAP. After Spring Break you will be assigned your interview time.
Interview date: April 16, 2019 – time varies for each student
Portfolio due: May 10th, 2019
Hi Grads,
Due to the restrictions set out by Office 365, Grad Transition projects will be PRINTED and SUBMITTED to your advisor BEFORE Friday, May 10th, 2019. Do not submit GT assignments there.
The deadline for you to complete the Career Cruising portion is STILL December 21, 2018.
If you have questions, please ask!
Thanks! Ms. Lo and Ms. Gillam
