 Student Services_ Gr. 12 Assembly (2021-04-07)_...

Reminder from the office:  Remember that you must return all items borrowed from the school (Chromebooks, textbooks, instruments, etc.) by June 25th.

Need more info?  Here are some relevant links to Classroom posts we have provided in the past:  Please review.

• COMMUNITY SERVICE
• ACCEPTING OFFERS OF ADMISSION
• SCHOLARSHIPS and BURSARIES
• GUIDANCE APPOINTMENTS
• RETURNING FOR FIFTH YEAR

Some answers to specific questions from the presentation:

1) is the form for consent or the form for all the available certificates out yet?

No, not yet.  The 'Grad' form will be sent out on April 19th.  We will be sure to remind everyone.

2) What day is the video being shown ?

The planned date for the Grad video's release is June 28@7pm.  Remember, to be a part of this video, you must provide consent.  If you have any questions about providing consent and what that may mean, please just ask.

3) The portrait photos that we have to send are to be taken by ourselves? or will the student card pic be used. 

The portrait photos for the regular school uniform photos will be taken at home if they weren't taken by LifeTouch at the beginning of the school year. (Instructions out about this on the all Grade Google Classrooms: See it here.)

For Grad Portraits, they will need to be taken at Life Touch if they didn't get a chance to take them at the school and I believe Mr. Baggio sent out instructions about this.  

4) Can I change my mind after I accept an offer from a school?

Yes, you can change your mind and accept a different offer as long as the offer hasn't expired.  

Couple things to keep in mind:  

• You may only accept one offer at any given time. 
• All offers must be officially accepted/changed through the application site. 
• You don't have to decline offers you don't want... they will just expire.  

5) Can you still apply?

Yes, many programs are still open at the college and university level.  Visit the relevant application sites to get the most current lists. For University , click here.  For Colleges, click here.

If you still have questions or concerns about planning your exit out of high school, request an  an appointment to see your guidance counsellor.

Take care

Mr. Howes

"MEDPALS"

ATTENTION FUTURE MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS: Check out this cool opportunity! If you're a high school student interested in the healthcare field, this is your chance to be paired with a medical student mentor, learn about the application process, practice clinical skills and so much more! MedPals is a program run by Schulich School of Medicine that matches high school students from the Windsor-Essex area with first and second year medical student mentors. This allows high school students interested in medicine or who are unsure about what to do after high school to learn more about the field. It is a great opportunity to ask any questions you may have about university or getting into healthcare! As a mentee, you will attend three to four events (virtually or possibly in-person if it's safe to do so at a later time) throughout the year to meet with your mentor in a group setting. Past events have included a tour of the medical school, learning clinical skills, and games night! If you would like to sign up or would like more information, please email us at <<windsormedpals@gmail.com>>.
