College Visits

COLLEGE VISITS

Students must get a COLLEGE VISIT FORM to receive an excused absence for a College Visit Day. Forms may be downloaded from the 'Forms' section of this website or they are located in the office foyer on the credenza underneath the class pictures. The top page must be completed before you go on your college visit (preferably 2 weeks in advance). The rest of the form (questions about the college) must be returned to Mrs. Dickens the first school day following your college visit.

COLLEGE DAY will be December 3. In order to participate, Seniors must have applied to at least one of their college choices by Thursday, November 19.
