They presented their research to a panel of eminent scientists in this field.
Their research focused on two intriguing topics:

TESTING ROOMS will be posted by the Library and outside Student Services by the end of today! ALL accommodated rooms will not be posted. INSTEAD all accommodated students should check their email for where they are to report for testing. Mrs. Cooper will be sending those emails today.
ALL SENIORS will spend that time with Jorge Rodriguez from the College and Career Access Center to complete the Senior Exit Survey, help completing the FAFSA, AND help completing the SIGMUND Scholarship Application or others they may need help with.

It is critical that your student be here not only for the check Thursday but also next week during testing.
