UPCOMING COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY & MILITARY VISITS
Students should stop by the Counseling Office get a pass to attend the college/university/military Rep Visit prior to the visit in Career Center (located right next to Counseling Office). These university/college or military visits are small group meetings typically lasting 20/30 minutes. These admission reps are often times the same people that review college applications, so it's a great connection for students.

LEARNING COMMONS
THANK YOU & NEW WISH LIST ITEMS
The Learning Commons has recently received three significant donations of common household/garage goods from our wish list. We were able to further stock our makerspace and shared some of the supplies with the applied math classes. Thank you for your generous donations to build our Zapp Lab and other hands on work spaces!
We have added a few new items to our
wish list, but have a special request. As your family may be upgrading your phone technology,
please consider donating old phones to the Learning Commons. We have a set of Google Cardboard Virtual Reality headsets, but no devices to project the videos. The minimum requirement is simply a functioning phone which can connect to the internet. We will be able to access hundreds of virtual tours with minimal investment and provide students with a whole new way to interact with rich learning opportunities. Check out a sample video
here and even more amazing with virtual reality!
WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE LEARNING COMMONS
Open to all students from 7am-3:30pm daily. We offer space for quiet study, group collaboration, hands-on projects and a green screen video studio. Please stop by to see our space whenever you are in the building!
