This is a great opportunity to discuss their goals, interests, and any questions they may have. By working together, students can ensure they choose options that are both fulfilling and meet their goals. Students will sign up during Advisory on Tuesday, March 3. Fourth quarter iPeriods will last six weeks, beginning March 24.
