SCHOLARSHIPS & FAFSA
FSA ID Night COMING SOON!!!
SENIORITIS
Colleges can, and will, rescind your admission for poor grades. You can lose scholarships before you even start receiving money from them. A military branch or career may revoke their offer without a DIPLOMA in hand.
Senioritis is real… DON’T GIVE UP
Participate in hobbies or learn new things you enjoy
Make time for exercise & fitness
DO THE WORK. IT WILL BE WORTH IT
LIFE AFTER SCHOOL
CV
To finish I’ll leave you with a message that I would share if I could go back in time and speak to the overstressed, and freaking out 17 year old me - I’d tell that lanky, wide eyed-teenager to stop searching for a perfect path and start focusing on her own path instead.
I’d tell her to tap into her unique WIFI, I’d tell her to trust. Trust that if she makes a decision from the information she has based on her interests, her research, her dreams, then that is without a doubt the best decision she can make.
“My dream, is for all school-leavers to know this simple message before walking out of the school gates”
