Hello! The month of September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month.

Tuesday Sept 14th 6:00 - 7:30pm Wednesday, September 15 from 5-7pm Please join us for a free webinar specifically designed for parents and educators to discuss teen mental health amidst the 2021-2022 school year. In this webinar, our clinical staff members discuss various aspects of how teen mental health has been impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the challenges faced in a return to normalcy. SNAPCHAT-the newest drug dealing trend: Join the Scottsdale Youth and Community Coalition and Aurora Behavioral Health in a virtual presentation from the AZ Air National Guard. This presentation discusses the Snapchat application itself; Identify the applications origins, the appeal to our youth, who is currently using Snapchat, how they are using it, and the risks associated with using it. This presentation will review criminal cases involving Snapchat and show an actual case of how a family can be personally impacted. Finally, we will discuss the role that professionals, parents, and caretakers can do to protect the youth in our lives. |

Senior year, fall (September to November)
- Ask for letters of recommendation - At least a month prior to the deadline, provide your recommenders with bullet points listing how you excelled academically in their classes along with the letter of recommendation forms and stamped envelopes addressed to the colleges where you are applying.
- Gather all application materials - Make sure you, or your guidance counselor, have the necessary materials for college admissions including forms, test scores, essays, recommendations, and transcripts. If you are worried about the cost of the application, ask your guidance counselor or college of interest for a fee waiver!
- Submit early decision application, if desired - Early decision applications, usually due in November, require a binding commitment in exchange for early acceptance.
- Submit early action applications - For early action schools, you receive a decision early but can wait for the regular decision deposit deadline to make your final choice.
- Submit CSS PROFILE if applying early - Though the FAFSA cannot be submitted until after October 1, certain schools require the CSS PROFILE in the fall if you plan to go through their early application process.
- Ensure official SAT and/or ACT score reports are sent to early application schools-In addition to your application forms, letters of recommendation, essays, and other requested materials, your early decision application will require you to go to the College Board (SAT) and ACT Student (ACT) websites to send colleges your official test score reports.
- Go into early admissions interviews confident - Interviews for some early action/decision schools happen in the fall, but don't stress out. You've done your research; now it's just about having a conversation!
