General Information
paw The district scholarship and bursary page is now up and running. If you are planning on applying for extra money to assist you in covering the expenses for post secondary, the time to work on your packages is now. For information on this package, please visit the School District 42 website and look for the link titled "Students". In this link, click on "Student Financial awards" and download the district booklet. If you need assistance with scholarships and bursaries, please see Mr. Grill in counselling or Mr. Embree or Ms. Peck in the career center. Your Grad Transitions teacher Mrs. Young would be great to talk to as well. Keep in mind that scholarships and bursaries are ongoing and a number of "early" ones found on-line expire at the end of the month. For more details about "Free Money", see the bulletin board outside Mr. Embree's room.
paw Attention Grade 12's: Please be aware that if you plan on attending UBC, the deadline for applications is fast approaching. The final date that UBC will accept applications for September 2012 is January 31. In addition, most colleges and Universities in Eastern Canada also have deadlines at the end of January, so time to apply is running short. On a final note, early admissions deadlines for institutions such as the University of the Fraser Valley is also the end of the month. If you have not signed up with ApplyBC and submitted your applications, the time is now.
paw Attention: Grade 12 students looking for a place to complete work and get help after school. Just a reminder that on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Mr. Sanderson, with the assistance of Mr. Grill and an few other teachers, will be opening the library up for students to work on and get assistance with school work, as well as scholarships and bursary packages. The time you spend at the library is self-directed and we are there to guide and assist you. In addition, as a little extra incentive, there will be a few snacks and beverages to help you refresh after such a long day at school. If interested, please drop by on these days in order to check it out.
