Attention all middle school students!!!  Student Council is sponsoring a hurricane relief project and will be collecting school supplies and basic hygiene items over the next two weeks.  Please bring all items to your homeroom teacher, and the homeroom with the most items collected will win a doughnut party.  Collections will run until next Friday.

 

Attention Juniors and Seniors:

 

 

The Annual United States Senate Youth Program authorizes the selection of 104 student delegates in the U.S. The delegates are immersed in Washington activities throughout their week-long stay, including visits to the Senate, the House of Representatives, the Supreme Court and the Pentagon. Delegates hear major addresses by senators, cabinet members and officials of the Department of State and the Department of Defense, as well as other federal departments. All expenses are paid for the week long Washington stay, including transportation, hotel accommodations and meals. In addition, each delegate is awarded a $10,000 college scholarship for undergraduate studies.  The student applicant must currently be serving in an elected capacity in student government, civic or educational organizations.  Selection will be based on academic accomplishments, community service, knowledge of current American government issues and procedures and demonstrated qualities of leadership for the current school year.  See Mr. Nichols if you are interested in participating in our school's nominating process.  A qualifying test will be administered to interested students on Thursday 9/28.  

 

A fire can breakout with little or no warning. The more prepared you are, the safer you will be. Have a meeting location at school and at home that everyone will gather after a fire evacuation. A meeting location will help you quickly verify that everyone made it out safely.

 

On Monday, Sept. 25 at 6:00 there will be a FAFSA meeting for seniors and their parents in the auditorium. Jason Seay from TSAC will talk about the FAFSA and financial aid, and will be on hand to answer questions. Contact your counselor for questions.

 

 

Sewanee, UT Knoxville, Tennessee Wesleyan, and the Air National Guard will visit College Corner on Tuesday from 12:30-1:30.

 

Middle School student council representatives need to meet in Mrs. Davis's room, 219, after school on Tuesday, September 26th.
