Making Moves
The holiday season isn’t just for celebrating—our seniors are making moves! Many have already begun submitting scholarship applications and checking off the FAFSA from their to-do lists. With deadlines approaching, this is the perfect time to secure financial aid and reduce the cost of college. Plus, scholarship wins can make a huge difference in choosing the perfect school. Whether it’s local opportunities or national awards, the work our seniors put in now will pay off for years to come. Keep up the momentum and make this season one of progress and possibility!
Updates
- NOW: FAFSA is open for Seniors!
- 9th - 12th graders with a D or worse in any class must attend after school study sessions in the media center (beginning 12/2).
- All 9th-12th graders must have scheduled a 1-on-1 Meeting with Mr. Hughes by this date. Click the appointment sign-up link to book a time.
- Live Tutoring For All Students: South Redford recently partnered with Varsity Tutors to offer online tutoring for all students. Click the Launchpad link to learn more.
- Middle School Homework Clinic: The Eagle Scholars Homework Clinic runs on Mondays and Thursdays from 3:10-4:10 pm. A late bus will be available for bus riders; others will need to arrange a ride or walk home.
Help us reach our goal of $4000 in scholarships!
Thoughts From A Smart Person
An exchange from The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien on moving forward despite the difficulties we face:
Frodo: “I wish none of this had happened.”
Gandalf: “So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.”
