ACT TEST REGISTRATION DEADLINE TOMORROW
The upcoming test is October 27, 2007. The regular registration deadline
is Friday, September 21st. Go to
www.actstudent.org for more information and to register. (You will
need a credit card.)
COLLEGE IN HIGH SCHOOL
SIGN-UP DEADLINE TOMORROW
College in High School (CIHS) is a
statewide program that partners high schools and post secondary
schools to help students earn credits toward high school graduation
and college simultaneously.
Letters were handed out those
students who are enrolled in the nine classes being offered this
year as part of the CIHS program. In the letter the charges for the
CIHS courses was presented. It was mentioned that FR had received a
Duel Enrollment Grant to help offset the costs, but the exact amount
was not know at the time the letter was written. I now have that
information.
Grant monies will lower the cost of
CIHS $20 per course.
One 3-credit course at California
University will now cost $55
One 3-credit course at LaRoche
College will now cost $85.
Registration (form and check) will
take place in the Counseling Center and will run from September
17th through September 21st.
Students need to complete a
registration form for EACH class that they take. However, students
may bring ONE CHECK with a combined total for all classes. Checks
must be made out to FRANKLIN REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICT.
(ASB, based on letter sent home and
information provided by Ms. Mellon)
SENIOR YEAR DUES
As explained in the letter sent home in August with the
students' schedules the high school has adopted a new Senior Year Dues
program. All monies previously submitted under the old Class Dues
system have been transferred to your child's new Senior Year Dues (SYD)
account and applied towards the $70 in SYD owed. Included with all of
the juniors' and seniors' schedule in August was a statement showing how
much they had paid to date and their remaining balance which is to be
paid in full this year.
Class of 2009
This year's Junior Class sponsors are Mrs. Magness and
Mrs. Trimnal. They have the old "Class Dues" records kept by the
previous class sponsors during the Class of 2009's freshman and
sophomore years. If you have misplaced the statement with your child's
remaining balance and you can't remember what you have already paid,
you will need to contact one of the sponsors to get the current
remaining balance.
To make your payment please:
Make checks payable to "CLASS OF 2009"
CHECKS ONLY - no cash, please!
Please be sure to write the Student's name in the
Memo Line along with 2009
Place check in an envelope, seal it and write "Class
of 2009 Senior Year Dues" and Attn Mrs. Magness on the front.
Parents or students may drop the payment off in the
main, please be sure the envelope is placed in Mrs. Magness' mailbox.
Payments may also be mailed to the school, Attn. Mrs.
Magness, Class of 2009 Senior Year Dues
Class of 2008
This year's Senior Class sponsors are Ms. Giron and
Mrs. Bryant. They have the old "Class Dues" records kept by the
previous class sponsors during the Class of 2008's freshman,
sophomore and junior years plus any payments made this summer when
applying for a parking pass. If you have misplaced the statement
with your child's remaining balance and you can't remember what you
have already paid, you will need to contact one of the sponsors to
get the current remaining balance.

ATTENTION ATHLETIC BOOSTER
SPONSORS
I am requesting to have any athletic booster sponsors
to contact me if you have a project or idea that would have anything
that you may need art students to help you out. Our National Art
Honor Society high school students are looking for their community
project ideas for this year. We do have some limitations as far as
what we are able to do, but we will try to work with you if
possible. Please contact: Mrs. Lori Mozina at:

OFFICE DEPOT DONATES TO
SCHOOLS
5% Back to Schools Program:
Office Depot will give the high school an Office Depot
Merchandise Card worth 5% of all qualifying school supply
purchases made during each program period. Computers, TVs, all
technology items including PDAs, all furniture items and
accessories, some bulk packaged products, ink and tone
cartridges, gift cards, and purchases made to contract business
account are not qualifying purchases. BUT that still leaves
notebooks, index cards, pencils, pens, highlighters, filler
paper, dividers, glue sticks, paper clips, erasers, rubber bands
and many other items you typically purchase throughout the year!
If you shop at Office Depot please remember to
ask the salesperson to apply your purchase towards the Back to
School Program. I was told at the store that the program runs
year round!
They can look up Franklin Regional High School or
you can make live a little easier for them by giving them our
school ID# - 70087330.
