 2018 Senior Experience
On Tuesday, April 3, all Apollo Juniors are taking the ACT. Classes will not be held for Seniors on April 3. However, on the April 3, Seniors have a unique opportunity to participate in one of several options to further their preparation for post-secondary life. 9th and 10th grades will have class as usual.
All Apollo 12th grade students will be required to choose and arrange on their own one meaningful educational experience from a list of options to fulfill the requirements of their day. Seniors will fill out a form which will be handed out in Planning Room on Thursday, March 22. Seniors are to have a parent sign the form and return the form to the main office and be ready to attend his or her selected experience on April 3.
Seniors please carefully consider which of the following options you will choose and then arrange to complete your experience on April 3.
You may take the opportunity to:
- Visit a post-secondary school of your choice
- Job shadow in your desired career area
- Perform community service at your chosen organization
- Search and apply for scholarships
- Search for employment
- Be involved in a study group (ex: Advanced Placement small group)
You will need to make your own arrangements by contacting the college, employer or community service organization of your choice, and setting up the experience you desire. You may also speak with your guidance counselor regarding the scholarship application process if you have not already done so.
The arrangements for your Senior Experience must be completed and turned into the main office by Wednesday, March 28, to be excused from school for the day.
Please work with your family, counselors and/or other staff to take full advantage of this unique educational opportunity! If you, or your family, have any questions, please contact Principal Al Johnson: al.johnson@isd742.org. Thank you.
