Beta Club meets today in the hospitality room!
Students, remember to ask for recommendation letters in advance for scholarships. If a scholarship only allows one student per school please submit the applications 24 hours prior to the postmark date to allow the staff to select the recipient. Give scholarships to Mrs. Byrne. Pay attention to all rules and guidelines. Good luck to all students!
Scholarships are rolling in this time of year, and many deadlines are approaching. There are several deadlines at the end of March and early April, including our local scholarship. Please refer to the website under scholarship opportunities. If you need clarification or have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Byrne. Don't miss out on opportunities for money.
