As a reminder from last week that if you haven’t completed the follow, please do so as soon as possible so we can help you stay on track:

1. College List - Make sure your Cialfo College list is updated. Your final list must be completed and on Cialfo by October 1

2. Teacher Recommendations - Be sure these are entered in Cialfo and reflect the teacher requests you made last school year (with the teachers that said yes!)

3. Brag Sheet - Be sure this is complete and shared with your counselor.

4. Essays - These must also be completed by October 1st, but we would love to give you feedback so set a time to share your essay with your counselor as soon as it is completed.

If you have any questions about these tasks, or would like to check in with your counselor, we would love to hear from you! Please either email us or use our Calendly links (Mr. Jeff or Ms. KK).
