General Announcements

 

Students:    Can you spell R...E...S...P...E...C...T?  If you can spell it, can you show it?  This month the Renaissance Student of Character attribute will be RESPECT.  Respect means that you accept somebody for who they are, even when they're different from you or you don't agree with them.  Respect in your relationships builds feelings of trust, safety, and wellbeing.  Respect doesn't have to come naturally – it is something you learn.  Have you learned this all-important lesson?  Do you show respect for others AND yourself?  If so, then this is your month.   

This upcoming Friday is Student Council's first 'Festive Friday' dress up day. Come to school and join in Zoom decked out in your best Hawaiian attire! School dress code applies. Send pictures to mherring@wcusd5.net.

 

Seniors- Cap and Gown orders can be placed online @ jostens.com until Monday, March 15th. After that date you will need to call Jostens @ 618-654-1001 to place an order.  Cap and gown prices will go up after March 15th and you will need to pay over the phone.

 

Guidance

 

Illinois Association for College Admission Counseling is hosting virtual college fairs on March 17th & 18th from 5:00 – 7:45 pm.  Go to www.strivescan.com/illinois/mar17/ to register for any of the several virtual sessions being offered.  You can sign up for up to 3 different 45-minute sessions of your choosing!  Explore the schedule and register for each session you want to attend. You will hear from up to six colleges in each session. We recommend registering for at least one session in each time slot.  Once you register, you’ll receive a confirmation email with your personalized link to join the Zoom Webinar. Since these are webinars, your camera and microphone will be off, but you’ll still be able to ask questions live.
