Seniors
Seniors! In honor of Valentine’s Day, this Friday, we will be watching “10 Things I hate About You,” for our Senior Movie Night. It will take place at 6:00pm in Olympic Hall. Permission slips and more information will be given out in your English class.
Seniors, the deadline to complete your FAFSA and be considered for a Cal Grant is March 2nd! Many of you have not completed your FAFSA yet. This could save you hundreds or thousands of dollars for college next year, including Hancock and Cuesta. You must complete your FAFSA to get the Cuesta Promise scholarship. See Mr. Hubbell if you need help, or Mrs. Hirase in the Career Center.
Many of you still need to complete your 20 hours of community service. The forms are available in the counseling office to sign off on your hours. See Ms. Hawley in Counseling if you need ideas of where to volunteer. You will not be able to do the Senior Trip and Senior activities unless your hours are completed.
Community Service
Students! Do you need community service hours? There are two opportunities coming up! Sunday, March 31 is the first ever Santa Maria Open Streets. Main Street from Broadway to Blosser for a day full of booths, food, demonstrations, events, and family fun! It's free to attend, and they are looking for volunteers all day. You can sign up for multiple shifts, and will receive a letter of recommendation from the organizer. For more information, email Carlos Escobedo at [email protected].
Saturday, May 11 is the annual Miracle Miles for Kids 10K in Morro Bay. They are beginning to recruit volunteers. They need over 300 to pull the event off! They are looking for people to work both the packet pick up the day before and the race itself. To register to volunteer, please visit mm4k.com.
Remember to grab a pink community service form from the Counseling Office before you volunteer. For more information about these opportunities and a full list of organizations to do community service with, see Ms. Hawley in room 17.
