Thornton Fractional North High School

In these trying economic times we are trying to keep students from any road blocks that may hinder their post secondary options. College representatives are regularly in the building to discuss their individual institutions with interested students. Those students should sign-up in the Guidance Office. Counselors will send for those students when the appropriate college/university representative arrives. All financial aid must be completed online. Guidance will host a FAFSA completion night on February 25, 2010 at 4:30 PM. Mrs. Beard continues to update our Scholarship Bulletin. As scholarships have different requirements and deadlines, seniors should start applying for these academic dollars.

 

I hope you have a chance to see our new counseling suite, which is located where the old small gym was located. This state of the art facility will house our counselors, social worker, speech pathologist and other members of our Pupil Personnel Services team, headed by Assistant Principal, Ray Williams. Among the many student-related services that will be available in the new facility, there will be an extension for a Career Development Lab for college applications and career exploration. The new facility is expected to open shortly.

arrangements now to clear any balances that you may have with District 215 by contacting Mr Larry Conley, our bookstore manager at 708-585-1142.

 

Our Annual Eighth Grade Open House has been moved to Spring 2010. There will be more information in the near future. Parents and perspective students can anticipate the latest information about any new curriculum offerings, scheduling for Fall 2010, and a tour of the facilities.
