- PSAT/SAT Prep Class beginning September 24th
- From Ms. Goyal's weekly email: A community member who has his own SAT prep business volunteers one hour a week to work with our students. Beginning Sept . 24th and running every T hursday thereafter, he will meet with students in the staff cafeteria from 11:50 - 12:50. Students will need to sign up on Naviance as we must limit the number of students who attend to the first 80. Also, students will need to bring lunch or buy lunch from the cafeteria as students will meet through Tribe Time Advisory and the lunch period. This kind of preparation also supports student learning in all of their classes.
- Here's the link to the Naviance log-in: https://connection.naviance.com/family-connection/auth/login/?hsid=fullertonuh
- If parents don't know their student's "long ID" for the email or their "short ID" for the password, it can be found on the Aeries.net site (the one you check weekly for grades, right?) under the Student Profile. The "Perm ID Num" is the number you will use as the email address and the "StuNum" is the number you will use for the password.
- To register for the PSAT/SAT Prep class that begins September 24th click on the "Colleges" tab, then click on "College Visits" and then select "sign up" PSAT/SAT Prep class.

- Bye Week October 2nd
- Make good use of your upcoming bye week! You still have a few weeks to plan, but if you are a junior or a senior who wishes to pursue playing at the next level, you should be researching schools that might be a good fit for you as a student-athlete. Make a list of at least 30 schools: 10 big, 10 medium, 10 small. Cast your net wide!
- Some things to do: Check for academic areas of study that interest you. Check rosters to see how deep they are at your position. How many will graduate before you might get there? What type of game strategy do they use? Would your talents be utilized there or not?
- Use Hudl footage of the first five games and the beginning scrimmage to compile a "season so far" video to send off to colleges of interest.
