SENIOR NOTES
* COS Placement Test-Seniors: The COS Placement Test will be taking place here on campus on February 21st & 23rd. Please see Ms. Reynolds in the student services office to sign up. Last chances to take this placement test on our campus this school year!
* Seniors-it's time to complete the EDHS scholarship application. You can access it by going to the school website, clicking on the student services tab, clicking scholarships new in the left hand column, and you'll be able to get to it from there. If you worked on your scholarship essay in your English class, you can just copy and paste it into the application. If not, it doesn't need to be long-no more than one page. Here is the prompt: Provide information that will distinguish you from other applicants in terms of your goals, aspirations, and achievements. You may indicate other information about yourself or your families that may help the scholarship committee discern your need for a scholarship. The deadline is January 31, so don't procrastinate
* Cap & Gowns: Seniors if you missed your opportunity to place your orders, you have 3 options to ensure you order in time for graduation.
1) Online at Jostens.com
2) Calling 1-800-JOSTENS
3) Mailing to or dropping off at our local Visalia office - 1222 W Murray Ave Visalia CA 93291
* Scholarship Workshop: Seniors-Ms. Bitney is hosting an ongoing scholarship workshop on Mondays and Wednesdays after school in room 605 from 3:30 to 4:30. This is a great resource for assistance and information about scholarships, so make sure to go by and see her.
* Cal State Fullerton President's Scholars Program: If you have applied to Cal State Fullerton and have at least a 3.75 GPA, you are eligible to apply for the President's Scholars Program. President's Scholars receive full tuition payment for 4 years, priority registration, an annual stipend for books, and much more. To apply go http://www.fullerton.edu/PresidentsScholars/ The deadline has been extended to February 4, 2018.
* Seniors: if you are applying to any private colleges, you need to check their website to see if they require the CSS Profile application for financial aid. Not all do, but you will want to check to be sure. You can come in to the Student Services office to check the list of schools that require the CSS Profile if you prefer, but you better check soon-the deadline is February 15.
* Seniors: Transcript request forms are available in the Student Services Office. If you need an official transcript, please fill this out and allow 2-4 days for Mrs. Davis to process your requests. Your first 3 Official transcripts are free. After that you will be charged $1 per transcript.
