CALENDAR SECTION
Wednesday, Oct. 1:    Personal Essay--Final Draft & Peer Response Day (turnitin.com by 9:55 a.m.)
Folder for "Final Draft Personal Essay" now open.

***IMPORTANT INFORMATION***
With the help of Mrs. Cote in the College and Career Center and her contacts in the admissions world, we have resolved an issue that several people brought to my attention today.  I have disabled the "student repository" section of turnitin.com.  Your essay will still be evaluated against commercial sites, online journals and other media, etc., but if a school or even the Common App people were to assess your paper, it would not show up as a match with your very own paper.  No worries!

CULMINATING PROJECT, a state high school graduation requirement:  OCT. 15

12th grade: Senior English classes assign a Resume and and answer to Question #1 in September. Note: Resumes completed in Bridges in 10th grade cannot be used for your senior resume. All Seniors (even those not in English classes at IHS) must complete a resume and the typed answer to Question 1. The resume and question 1 are turned into the Career Center by October 15th of senior year. Senior Resume Guidelines and Expectations

Senior Packet for the Culminating Project
See the resume section of the College Resource Handbook for more help with resumes.
