ATTENTION JUNIORS: During an extended Advisory time period on Thursday, March 31, all juniors will participate in the PRE-ACT Registration. This will take place in the theater from 9:15-10:30 a.m. It is essential that all juniors bring the following items:
• Student’s Social Security Number (it is helpful, optional)

Upon successful completion of registration, all juniors will take the State ACT Exam on Wednesday, April 27 at Heritage.

JUNIORS: In 500 Words or Less is a documentary film about applying to college. It takes the viewer on a journey with four very different high school seniors as they spend their last year of high school trying to figure out who they are and who they want to be. Heritage High School will be showing this educational and captivating film in the HHS theater to all juniors after the State ACT test on April 27. Students must get approval from their parents and teachers before attending the movie. Attendance will be taken and there will be a signature needed from every student who attends stating that both parents and teachers have given their approval. Please contact Counselor, Katy Miller klmiller@lps.k12.co.us, with any questions about the film.

Pictures can be of ANYTHING (friends, dances, sports, vacations, etc), but they must be school appropriate! Please put your pictures on a CD labeled with your name and turn it in to Ms. Brethauer’s mailbox in the Main Office no later than Wednesday, May 4th, 2011.
