This week is College Go Week – Student Services is sponsoring two projects with that. First, all students are encouraged to decorate their lockers (blue tape or magnets only) with items representing their favorite colleges. Judging will occur on Friday during LITE period. Second, any senior who applies to a college this week needs to bring proof of that to Student Services this week to be entered into a drawing. Many of the colleges waive application fees this week, so it’s a great time to apply if you haven’t already.
