Friday Jan. 6th Announcements

Looking to shed some of that holiday weight? You can’t replace your regular sweat session with a blood donation, but you can burn about 650 calories while donating one pint of blood. The National Honors Society is currently signing individuals up for our January 18th blood drive, in the Aux Gym. Talk to one of our members at the sign up table during lunch to sign up and save lives.

 

If you are going on a college visit please stop by attendance for a form that needs to be filled out for it to be excused.

 

Do you need extra money to help pay for college? Seniors, the Community Scholarship Application is currently available but will be closing next Friday, January 13 at 3pm. Reminders: ALL COLLEGE-BOUND SENIORS should plan to apply. Scholarships are not just based on GPA. Scholarships also focus on memorials-losing a loved one, community service, sports/activities, careers (engineering, education, etc), elementary and middle schools attended within Westerville, etc. Scholarship amounts range anywhere from $500 to $10,000 Get a copy (digital pdf preferred) of a letter of recommendation from your teacher NOW. See Mrs. Stovall ASAP for assistance. Please check your Pupil Service Schoology course for the application link.
