Scholarship Time of Year
Hello Students and Parents
It is that time of year for seniors to finalize their after high school plans and search for scholarships.
The seniors’ 7th semester transcripts will be ready next week. I will scan and send the students a copy and send the official sealed transcripts to the college, institution, or scholarship site.
Many scholarships are sent directly to the school counselor to give to students.
This year I will post scholarships and college information on the SRHS lobby bulletin board, the morning bulletin, and to this email group.
Students need to be: (1) mindful of due dates, (2) apply for scholarships associated with the institution they are planning to attend now, and (3) check the bulletin board and their email for updates from me.
There are scholarship “SCAMS” so please be careful when you are using on-line searches. The college board can help you determine if a site is legitimate the link is below or call me at the high school and I’ll help check it out collegeboard.org/guidance/financial-aid/scams
The Idaho Department of Labor has many apprenticeship programs available for anyone over 18. The information is on their website https://labor.idaho.gov/dnn/EducationTraining/ApprenticePrograms.aspx the manual titled Idaho Workers Opportunity Network A Project of the Idaho AFL-CIO Is very helpful.
I am highlighting careers every week on the SRHS lobby bulletin board.
Scholarship applications are attached: If you have questions please contact me. Once the scholarships are completed send them to the organizations not to me or SRHS.
I will continue to send information as the scholarships come in.
Good Luck everyone,
Mrs. Best

School Time Change
There is a new school day start time at the jr/sr high school. The first bell will be at 7:56. The bell schedule hasn’t been finalized yet, but I want everyone to know (especially those parents that drive the kids in) that school will start earlier. There should be no change in bus pick up times in the mornings. No change in release time, still 4:00.
