8th graders will EXPLORE their FUTURE on March 4th and 5th
As one of the most influential people in your child’s life,
you have the opportunity to help him or her understand the importance of
preparing for life in high school and beyond.
While high school graduation day may seem far in the future, now is a critical time to make sure
your child is prepared to take that next step after graduation, whether that means starting college or training, or
starting a career.
Our school will be giving ACT Explore to all 8th
graders on March 4 and 5, 2015. ACT Explore
provides an early opportunity for your child to build plans for the future and review
academic progress toward college and career readiness. Assessing your child’s academic strengths and
areas of need while still in middle school allows him or her to make timely
coursework adjustments to get, or stay, on target for their educational and
career goals.
Taking ACT Explore also provides other benefits for your
child, including:
· Exploring
college majors and career areas that match their interests
· An
early indicator of college and career preparation
· Areas
needing extra help or additional courses
· Suggestions
for improving academic skills
Please make every effort to have your child in school on our EXPLORE assessment days. Thank you for your support and encouragement as you help
your child reach his or her greatest potential.

Empowering Parents
The Parent Project® was created
specifically for parents with difficult or out-of-control adolescents. Parents
learn and practice specific prevention and intervention strategies for
destructive behaviors—from truancy, alcohol and other drug use, gangs and other
criminal behavior, running away, to violence and suicide. Parents are
self-referred or can be referred to Parent Project classes by school officials.
Are you a frustrated parent trying to get your
child to complete their homework and/or chores? Is there a little too much
“drama” in your home? Address these issues now when things are not as bad as
they could be! This is a nationally recognized program
designed for raising children in these
challenging times. Many parents have taken advantage of the opportunity to gain
more confidence in their parenting skills at this convenient location.
This program will help you to:
Create a
home discipline structure that works
Improve
school performance
Prevent or
stop alcohol and drug use
Especially designed for parents of strong willed
children!
Ending
parent-child arguments FOREVER!
Improving
grades & school attendance
Learning how to “out-will” a strong willed child!
