ACT invites students to join them for a free
online event to help prepare for the ACT– a live session covering all four
subject areas on the ACT test. ACT expert instructors will outline
the most commonly tested concepts on the ACT and provide an overview of the
powerful interactive instruction available through ACT®Kaplan® Online
Prep Live. Students may bookmark this page: http://onlinepreplive.com/ and
plan on joining ACT on the above date. If they can’t make the live event, check
back later for a free on-demand recording of the presentation.
Quote
of the day from Francis Pharcellus Church, editor of the New York Sun, published in response to a letter to the editor on
Sept 21, 1897:
Yes, VIRGINIA, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and
generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your
life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there
were no Santa Claus.
From your Administrators,
Teachers, and Staff – here’s hoping each of you have the opportunity to
experience joy for yourself, and take the opportunity to bring joy to others
over this holiday break. No matter your
belief or creed, be kind to one another.
Happy Holidays – see you in 2017!
