Resume Creation

Take out the information from Tuesday so I can review it.

Then, using those ideas, create your own resume.

You should create this in a Google Doc so it will be saved for you and you can always come back to it later to update it with new skills, accomplishments, education, etc.

If you spend your time on this you will be able to actually use this in the future.

Mr. Testa Announcement

If you are a current sophomore and want to take a summer class please complete this very short form!

Summer classes begin May 20th and end July 17th. These classes are 8 weeks long, which is half the length of a normal class.  This means they are very fast paced and you cannot miss assignments.  May 20th is in the middle of final exams, so be prepared for that.  Please make sure you are available and have reliable internet during this time frame!   

Sophomores take HIS131 or 132 (American History) during the summer.  There is not much of a choice.  The reason is because HIS131/132 are required for both HS and college and because it is an easier 8 week online course.
