STUDENT INFO
· PENDING – Independent Study Athletics (ISA) applications for the 2020-21 school year will be on the school’s website under ATHLETICS beginning March 23. All applications are DUE on or before May 13, 2020. Late applications will not be accepted!
· Applications open soon for students interested in the AP Capstone two-year special topics and individual research program! Next year’s program focuses on Environmental Philosophy with inquiries into sustainability, ethical theories, resource allocation and animal rights, as well as personal and global responses to environmental crises both current and future. This two-year program guides students through the process of learning analysis of argumentation, the basics of proper research, and cross-disciplinary studies based on students’ own academic, career, and intellectual interests, leading to year-two’s year-long research project, which students plan and execute from their own open-ended interests – often becoming a successful gateway to college research positions and honors programs early in undergraduate studies. To learn more, see Mrs. Cabrera’s website or email [email protected].
· Scholar Quiz Semi-Finals and Finals POSTPONED until further notice.
