• Recommendation/Secondary School Report
• Before a counselor can complete any recommendations or Secondary School Report the following items must be completed:
• A short letter requesting the recommendation be completed. An Email or Online request is not sufficient. The letter should address the following:– Where you would like your
recommendation/form to be sent– deadlines
• The counselor MUST have a copy of your Senior Bio Form.
Complete all student information including current course schedule (Semester 1 and 2) when that is asked for.
• Complete and submit a transcript request form to the registrar. – Indicate if this will be for an on-line application such as
the common application or SEND EDU
