2003 Year in Review

Peterson's College Handbook

I have received new issues of Talbots planner books for college bound students. The latest issue of College and Careers magazine, Life 101 magazine, and the Fastweb student bulletin are also available from my table in the cafeteria.

The 2004 edition of Peterson's 4-year and 2-year College Handbook is available to loan out. See me about reserving this reference book filled with current information on colleges and universities.

Parents of freshmen and sophomores are encouraged to discuss the PLAN and Explore test brochures that their children were given during English class. I spoke to the students about the only standardized assessment that will be administered to these classes during this school year. It was suggested that students get plenty of rest and eat a good breakfast in preparation for testing.

New additions to the scholarship binder: Stokes Educational Scholarship Program, Burger King Scholars, Iowa-Illinois Regional Auto Show Dealers, and Wells Fargo College STEPS Program
