ALL 8TH GRADE PARENTS – Time for a CCR Plan meeting!
Before the CCR Plan meeting, students and their parents/guardians need to go through the College and Career Readiness (CCR) Plan presentation. This includes important information for high school and will prepare you for the CCR Plan meeting with your counselor. At the end of the presentation, you will sign up for an appointment to meet with your counselor. These meetings are required by the state for every 8th grader. To view the CCR Plan presentation, please visit the WJH Counseling Center website.
PTA REFLECTIONS CONTEST
The theme for Reflections Theme this year is “Show Your Voice…”
All entries will be due by Monday, October 14th, and will be submitted electronically. Details can be found at pta.org/reflections. Reflections is an excellent way for students to explore and be involved in the arts. The categories are: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, 2D Visual Arts, and 3D Visual Arts. Attached is a PDF of the rules.
Please encourage your student to participate! For questions, you can contact Micaela Webb at micawebb@gmail.com
REALITY TOWN– OCTOBER 7TH
Reality Town allows 8th graders to experience real life in a simulated environment. Students are given careers, jobs, families, and have to make budgeting and other decisions based on their paychecks and life situations. This valuable program requires about 70 volunteers! Volunteers play roles of car salesmen, bankers, grocers, etc. It’s a fun experience for both the students and adults; we welcome any volunteers–even if you don’t have an 8th grader. If you have questions, contact Heather Lowe (626)692-2009 or Elyse Hunter (801)201-9931. Please use this link to sign up to volunteer: Reality Town
