Hello Royal Families,

Happy spring! As the weather warms, we look forward to a busy season filled with student learning, extra-curricular activities, sports, performances and so much more. In this edition, I wanted to highlight a few of these upcoming events for your planning and preparations.

State Testing – Prior to each test we will be sending out notification, as well as informing our students at school, who will be taking the scheduled tests. Students who are not scheduled to take the Science (WCAS) and Smarter Balanced Assessment (SBA) will have late arrivals on the day of the test. Here are the dates for these upcoming assessments –

*SBA (Math) – May 26, 27 *SBA (English) – May 28, 29 *WCAS (Science) – June 1

Senior activities – Stay tuned for an email with a flier that will detail all the happenings for the class of 2020. The culminating activity will be graduation on June 13 at 7:30 P.M. at Edmonds Stadium.

Registration – Students will be registering for classes in March/April, which will in turn help to inform the master schedule and classes we create for next year. Our school team and counselors have been doing a lot of work to help inform your student about their choices and requirements but the more conversations about this the better. If you have any questions about your student’s registration needs, please do not hesitate to reach

out to their counselor or me.

We appreciate all the support, encouragement, and monitoring you are doing for your child. This is definitely a season that, while they might

not show it, students need and will appreciate us watching their grades and making sure they have what they need to be successful.

Go, Royals!

Help” page of the Counseling & Career website for valuable information!).

Select the dates you wish to register for the ACT or SAT.

Seniors – Check the “Scholarship List” in Naviance for opportunities to be

awarded money to help pay for training, certificates, or degrees after high

able

June 2nd Registration for Fall Quarter Begins

early because classes fill up. You want to have things

completed by the first week of June or you likely won’t be

admitted.

Registration for 2019-20

Students received materials to take home and review.

They will enter course requests online in the library March

5th – 7th. Please review graduation requirements with your

PASSWORD, contact the LHS Library at 425-431-5273.

Seniors – Class of 2020

Watch out for the dreaded “senioritis!” It is important for

you to continue working hard in classes. You don’t want

graduation to be in jeopardy and colleges want to see a

strong finish! Be sure to check your credits and make sure

you’re on track to graduate or make plans to finish up in

the summer.

Community and Technical Colleges

Applications are being accepted for fall enrollment at

community and technical colleges. It is wise to visit the col-

leges in person, but you may apply online. All of the colleg-

es have informational websites and financial aid services.

Don’t forget to apply for scholarships and complete the

FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).

4-year Colleges and Universities

Here is a quick check-list of tasks that need to be accom-

plished.

Mid-year reports and transcripts have been sent out if

you’ve requested them.

If you have not already done so, submit completed

FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)

as soon as possible. You may do this online at

www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Even if you have already been accepted, keep those

grades up! Final transcripts will be mailed in June

and it is not unheard of for colleges to rescind of-

fers when they see a poor performance for 2nd

semester.

If you’ve been accepted somewhere, please come to

the counseling office and tell us!

Juniors – Class of 2021

In just a few months you will be seniors! Now is the time to

start making post-high school plans. Spring break or this

summer is a great time to make visits to four-year, commu-

nity & technical colleges, and to start looking into various

career training opportunities. The Edmonds School District

College Night is April 16th at Meadowdale HS 7pm. Be sure

to attend.
