Movie Listings for 10/31 weekend

HERE are the movie listings for this Halloween weekend.

Who are we kidding?  We know that most of you are going to spend Friday night busy with tricks and treats.  But, if you wake up and want to see a movie there are a lot of scary ones for you to choose from this weekend.

Cowboys, please be safe this weekend.  If you attend parties, make good choices.  If you have friends that sometimes don't make great choices, don't get in a car with them.  Keep the number of Safe Rides 259-6330 in your phone, just in case!

Financial Aid Workshops this Wednesday

Cowboys, does this sound like you?  You want to attend college, but you're worried about how you and your family will pay for it. If the answer is yes, you need to know more about Financial Aid!  There will be two financial aid workshops this Wednesday, November 5th. 

The first workshop will be Wednesday, November 5th, at 7:40 am in the library.  It is a late start day.  THERE WILL BE BREAKFAST!!!  We will share with you the types of financial aid available, where to get it, and the deadlines to apply.  If you need help paying for college, make sure to attend this important workshop.  Parents and students are invited to attend.  Don't forget, we will feed you!!

The second workshop will be Wednesday, November 5th at 6:30 pm in the library.  One of our Canyon parents will be discussing personal financial planning for college.  This is a great workshop for all parents to attend.

We hope to see you Wednesday!

Deadlines are approaching for California college admissions! Need help?

Movie Listings for 10/16 and FREE MONEY!!

HERE are the listings for this weekend.

Have you ever checked out the links on the right side of our blog?  We have compiled a lot of important information into one easy list for you.  For example, ff you are a senior, you should make it a habit to check the daily bulletin (please notice it is one of the first links on the right).  The Counseling Department posts scholarships in the bulletin on a regular basis.  If you aren't checking this important resource, you are missing out on FREE MONEY.  Now that is more scary than any upcoming Halloween movie!

Movie Listings for the 10/10 weekend

HERE are the movie listings for this week.

If you are planning on taking the PSAT next Saturday, October 18th, you might want to take the time to study for the PSAT instead of going to the movies. If you have purchased a test, there are study guides in the counseling office.

If you don't need to study for the PSAT, which is next Saturday, October 18th, then our recommendation for this weekend is Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.  Mostly we are recommending this movie because sometimes it is nice to just watch a funny movie that reminds you that everybody has a bad day sometimes.

If you are ever having a bad day, we sure hope you will stop by the counseling office and let us help!  Even if you just want somebody to listen, we are here for you. 

The PSAT is Next Saturday!

The PSAT will be administered Saturday, October 18, starting promptly at 8:00 am.  Students are encouraged to arrive no later than 7:30 am outside of the gym.  By 7:45 am all students will be checked in and seated.   At 7:50, students on the wait-list will be assigned to the seats vacated by those students who are not in attendance.  There will be NO refunds to any students who arrive after 7:50 am, if your seat has been given a student on the wait-list.  Students on the wait-list will get a refund if a test is not available.  Please see Mrs. Hettema on Monday in the counseling office for your refund.  Doors will be closed and testing will begin promptly at 8:00 am.  Any student arriving after 8:00 am will not test!!!  Please be on time.

If you have any questions, please stop by the counseling office.
