Notes about this week and beyond

1.       Please note the grades/times that students will be impacted by activities below.

        March 30: Language Arts State Testing Practice  -- what grade level(s) will test and what periods? This is for the juniors and it will be during their regular scheduled English class.
        March 30: Link Spring Egg Hunt – Advisory – is this for the whole student body or just freshmen? It’s for all freshmen and their Junior/Senior Link Leaders.

2.       Please let your juniors know about the College and & Careers 101 Night next Wednesday, April 6, for students and parents. It’s from 6:30-7:30 p.m. in the cafeteria. I’ll leave some flyers in the office, and they’re also posted around school.
Our very own Gretchen from ASPIRE “Central” will be doing the presentation. You are most welcome to come, too!!

3.       Pass along the news to students that they (and you!) can now follow us on Twitter at @YamhillAspire

4.       It will soon be April  -- like Friday already!! Which means you can have seniors start doing the ASPIRE exit surveys. I have a shortcut to the survey on the desktop of each computer.
5.       And if you, too, could do your volunteer ASPIRE survey before May 1, that would be great. Here’s the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/3ZRZPSC
6.       In case you haven’t yet heard: The recipient of the Birl Shultz Memorial Scholarship for four years tuition at Willamette University is Hayden Cline, one of our student aides.
7.       Tuesday April 5 from 9:15 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., reps from eight of Oregon’s public universities will be on hand at Western Oregon University. Students (and any mentors who would like to attend) will be able to talk with these folks as well as take a tour of the WOU campus. Call 503-838-8194 for details. A flyer is posted under Events on the ASPIRE bulletin board wall.
