Oct is a busy month. This is a list of activities to kick off the month of “Idaho College Application Week” ( there are some new ones since the last email) the official week is Oct. 31–Nov 4. The school hall bulletin board will be changed each week, if you would like to add information please do so…
Due to our small size it is hard to get recruiters to come during the designated “College Application Week” so I have invited college recruiters and guest speakers during the month of Oct.
Teachers and community members are invited to share their “college experience” with the senior class during the Career class starting at 11:15 each day. Andrea Hale shared her experiences at LCSC and it was very informative and the students were helped by her good tips. Please call me, Jeri Best 208-630-6025 Ex 5102.
