All classes have something they can be looking forward to as the year winds down;
seniors have graduation and college planning, while freshman through juniors
have a college night featuring four different colleges in the auditorium March
28.
Seniors, if you have not talked to your college about deadlines, you need to do that!
Most deadlines are May 1--lots of payments are due then as well.
“If you haven’t thought about college or don’t know where you’re going to go, then you
should make an appointment with one of us and get that figured out,” said Mrs.
Steve, OHS guidance counselor.
Seniors are getting anxious about graduation day and are ready to hit the road to
college. Seniors, make sure you look at the board outside of the counseling
office for scholarship opportunities.
Freshman through Juniors, there is going to be a college fair on March 29 from 6:00-7:30
which is the Monday right after spring break. There are going to be four
different colleges here.
Mrs. Steve said, “This is going to give the students a chance to look at what the
difference is between a big university and a small one, and a small community
college compared to a four-year university.”
The colleges that will be here are Eureka College, Illinois State University,
Illinois Wesleyan University, and Heartland Community College. This gives
students a good variety of college options.
Parents are more than welcome to come! Anyone who has questions on this can contact
Mrs. Steve or Mr. Castillo in the counseling office.
