AG Group Notes for 4/1/13

AG Announcements – 4/01/13

There are fee waivers available for this spring’s intensives. You could get up to half your intensive paid for. Forms are in the office and are due April 5th.

Students interested in teaching a peer-taught class first semester of next year should present their proposals to the staff on Monday, April 22nd.

Sophomores, don’t forget to bring your signed consents for Sophomore Day. There is a wire basket on the counter in the office to place them in. There are also blank consent forms next to the basket in case you lost yours.

Travel Scholarship Deadline: Are you interested in traveling to Belize or San Diego during December 2013’s Intensive next year, but need a little financial help getting there? If so, Steller has a scholarship fund that can help you out. Scholarships are based on financial need, student involvement, and grade level, with financial need being the most important. Scholarships pay up to half of the cost of the Intensives and cover the last payments. Travel scholarship forms can be picked up from the teachers leading the trip or from the office and are due back to the office no later than Friday, April 26th. Students who are looking at traveling during next year’s Spring Intensive to Nicaragua or Europe will be able to apply for scholarships in the fall.

The Nicaragua travel intensive will meet this Wednesday at noon in Ken’s room and Mara Kimmel, who has done this trip recently will be our guest speaker. Come and hear her talk about her experience and what you can expect on this excellent travel/community service opportunity. All are invited. See you there. Ken

If you leave through the front doors and cross the drive to get to your vehicle that is parked on Blueberry Road, please pay attention while crossing the drive. A couple of you have almost been hit by cars……
