    Senior Tidbits

    Seniors!  Counseling is going to start giving you little bits of information regarding the things you should be working on outside of school to prepare you for life after high school.  This will be called Senior tidbits.  Today's senior tidbit is: 
    1. Scholarships - applying for scholarships is a great thing to do over your Winter Break. Some scholarships are good for programs other than college!  Also, fill out your FAFSA if you haven't yet!  Here are the links for websites with scholarships and the FAFSA:
