Principal's Message Feb. 9, 2018
|
|
With registration right around the corner, I want to share with you the process for applying to the AVID and AP Capstone programs. AVID and AP Capstone are signature programs for high-achieving students who plan to attend college, and are looking for a rigorous curriculum. For AVID, students must complete the application found here. Once completed, they will be scheduled for an interview with our AVID site team. The interview ensures that AVID is the right fit for the student and that they will be successful in the program. AVID applications are due by March 5th, 2018. For AP Capstone, the application, found here, requires students to prepare a portfolio and include several writing samples. The portfolio takes time, so it is important to start preparing now. Students should consult with their counselor about the application process for either program, or meet with me to discuss. I also would like to share with the parents that many students are playing a game in town using squirt guns to "eliminate" players from the game. The game is not affiliated with Fountain Hills High School, and we have shared with students that this game cannot be played on our campus. We also shared with them that community members may not understand what they are doing and misinterpret their actions. If you would like to share or discuss this issue with me, please call anytime. |
