Perfect for all students and parents
Wednesday, November 29 at 5:30 pm – Tune in on the ICAN Facebook page or REGISTER
Earning college credit in high school is a great opportunity for students if you know how to make it work for you. In this session we will cover the types of college credit and how it all works from the impact on financial aid, transferring the credit to college, and the rigor of college-level academics.
A recording of the event will be available at www.facebook.com/ICANsucceed/videos following the live broadcast.

We are looking for a licensed attorney to assist with our Mock Trial program. We have a school adviser who oversees the program, but we are looking for someone to help offer their expertise in writing statements and arguments for the competitions in February. Practices are primarily in January and February. Dates and times can be flexible to work with the volunteer attorney. If you or anyone you know might have an interest, please contact Bridget Murphy at bridget.murphy@assumptionhigh.org
