LUGGAGE DRIVE FOR FOSTER CHILDREN
BRING LUGGAGE ITEMS BEFORE SCHOOL MARCH 18 - 22
Starting Monday, March 18 through Friday, 22, there will be a LUGGAGE DRIVE to help foster children who are currently without gear to move their items. Many foster children have to go to school with trash bags or no bags instead of backpacks. A lot have to use trash bags or pillow cases to transport their items to new homes. We would really appreciate if you could donate to help the cause. Please assist by donating new, like new or gently used items such as:
- suitcases
- duffel bags
- backpacks
- other luggage or types of bag
For every item a student drops off, their name will be entered into a drawing for a 19-20 parking permit or a Six Flags pass. Clubs such as Unicef, NHS, and Beta are also giving points or hours for donating. Bring any luggage donations to the atrium before school on March 18 through 22. Bring your student ID (or know your number) to be scanned for the drawing and/or receive club credit.

AP TEST INFORMATION
REGISTERING FOR AP EXAMS
As you know, taking the Advanced Placement exams is an important part of all AP courses. Milton High School desires that all students take AP exams for the AP classes that they have taken. Scoring well on an AP exam can possibly earn student's college credit for their high school classes, saving a significant amount on tuition.
If you choose not to take the AP exam, there is an opt-out form that needs to be signed by you and your parents. This form must be completed and returned to your teacher no later than March 11, 2019. The form can be printed from the registration site. Students can also get a copy of the form from your AP teacher.
Students wishing to take AP exams must register for their tests online. This registration will take a few minutes and can be completed from any computer with internet access. AP exams are given to Milton students at no cost. Students will have the ability to continue in this tradition by registering for their tests during the priority registration window.
Online Priority Exam Registration has started. You will have until Wednesday, March 6, 2019 at 11:59 PM to complete your registration at no cost. Online Late Registration will begin on Thursday, March 7, 2019 at 12:01AM, at a cost of $25 per exam, and end on
Wednesday, March 12 at 11:59PM.
To complete the registration, students must answer all required questions.
Registration is not complete until students have printed the confirmation .pdf of the confirmation page that is provided at the end.
We know that parents may desire to register their students for exams. We strongly recommend that parents and students are both present while registering to ensure that the correct exams are ordered. Here are the important dates for the registration process:
- 3/6/19: 11:59PM- AP Priority Test Registration Ends
- 3/7/19: 12:01AM - AP Late Registration Begins-payments after this date will incur a $25 late fee per exam
- 3/12/19: 11:59PM- AP Late Registration Ends
