**10th Grade Reminder:** You were given green sheets for the **Spring College Trips** sign-ups. If you are planning to go to college, please sign-up for these trips. O**ne more trip that is not on this sheet has been added: April 18th, to Mansfield University of Pennsylvania. If interested, just write "Mansfield" into one the boxes on the front of the sheet. C** omplete the front and back before handing it into the Future Access Center (B097 at East and Rm 160 at JPM). Do this as soon as possible!! Thanks! Look at your attendance patterns from your "**Reflections On My Report Cards**" to determine how many days/classes you have missed. How do you think this has affected your academic performance? What are some of the reasons you have for missing these classes? Last year the fire department notified 75 candidates that they were chosen to be in the next class at the fire academy. Thousands of people had applied for those positions. On the first day they were to report. Two of the candidates were late. When they arrived, they were told to leave and their positions were going to be given to 2 other people. The commander who spoke to them said, "When we need you we mean here not somewhere else. we mean right now, not later." Was the commander justified in dismissing them? Why did you respond the way that you did? What is one thing that you could do that would enable you to wake up on time consistently? Why do some people think that what you do the night before is more important than what you do in the morning--getting to work or school on time? What do you think being dependable means? Punctual? What changes can you make to enable you to improve or maintain your attendance? How would regular attendance help your academic performance?

Reminders for 10th graders: 1. **Oct. 13: PSAT** testing is coming, that whole morning! It is good preparation for the SAT. 2. **Progress Reports**: These grades are temporary grades that can go up or down for the marking period depending on how hard you work! 3. After school **study help** is available in the IMC/**library** if you are feeling in a pinch, behind in their work or projects, or need support. This runs **Monday – Thursday**, is **free** and a bus takes you back to your neighborhood at 5:30.
