Winter is coming…and it is time to register for Winter Intensives. Winter Intensives are happening from December 12th to 22nd. Attached are the descriptions for the Intensives being offered. Students should read through them and pick their first, second, and third choice by Monday. Students will be entering their choices during Advisory on October 10th. If students are traveling with family during Intensives, they should talk to their Advisor this week and make arrangements to do an Independent Study Intensive. Also remember there is money for fee waivers for those with a financial need. Students should talk to the office, their Advisor, or the teacher they are interested in taking an Intensive to pick up an Intensive Fee Waiver form.
