We had another amazing Halloween day with the students at Peres. Our visiting Wolves were engaged in playing and talking with their little superheroes, mermaids, dinosaurs, and Disney characters. We cheered them on at their neighborhood parade and said goodbye with lots of hugs. Thank you again for the incredibly generous costume donations. The staff expressed their deepest gratitude, knowing that many of their students otherwise would not have had one to wear this year..

Event will be held at Las Positas College on Nov. 30 - Register by Nov. 16.
This symposium is perfect for students who are interested in media - especially those already participating in student media.

Rub shoulders with aspiring media members from other schools and build relationships with potential future colleagues. Details on School Loop. See this website to learn more and to register:
https://www.presspasssymposium.com/
SCHOOLLOOP PORTAL
- Be sure to view the SchoolLoop portal for more details on these announcements and more. We post to the SchoolLoop portal daily and update timely information as we receive it. https://srvhs.schoolloop.com/
SENIORS
- CSU (California State University) Application is OPEN. Students should take time to verify their entries, before submitting to intended campuses by Nov. 30th. The Cal State Apply helpline number is: 857.304.2087. We recommend you contact Cal State Apply OR the college you are applying to, if you have questions before submitting. Cal State Apply website: https://www2.calstate.edu/apply
- On Nov. 14th, we will have a UC Rep available to answer questions. Sign up on Naviance.
- Sending SAT/ACT Scores to colleges-UC and CSU: Check each school's website to learn if you need to send official ACT/SAT scores at the time you apply. Some may say that you just need to self-report and others will require you to send them officially from the ACT or SAT (College Board) websites.
-
Caveat: ALWAYS verify in the school's portal that they give you after you apply, that your scores were actually received by each campus. There can be issues....(missing scores) and it is up to YOU the student to ensure that all campuses (UC, CSU and all others who require them) receive them!

Stop by to peruse this basket for a selection as the year goes on! There are MANY, MANY options for students....and hopefully they will find something that interests them, and challenges them to grow!

GRAD NIGHT TICKETS
Hey Senior Wolves! Now that we are into the swing of things, don't forget to purchase your Grad Night ticket. Many of your friends have already done so and they've taken advantage of the lower price. Tickets to this amazing all-night event, that is just for you, will increase to $200 in January, so
use this link and get your paws on your ticket! Please contact Charlyene Swierstra at
[email protected] if you have questions about tickets.
GRAD NIGHT BUILD SITE
Our PTSA Grad Night 2019 Committee is searching for a warehouse/office space/build site. Ideally, the space would be 5000-8000 sq ft, and have electricity and plumbing. We will need access to this build site from January/February - May 31st, 2019. This donation would likely qualify as a write-off because PTSA is a 501(c)3 non-profit. If you have any suggestions that we can follow up with, please contact Carrie Shapiro at
[email protected].
Planning for Grad Night 2019 is well underway, and we are having a great time so far! We need a few more enthusiastic SRV class of 2019 parents because... if we all do a little, no one does a lot. We are organized, communicative, we all get along beautifully, and we have yummy snacks at our meetings. Come join us!
SIGN UP GENIUS & JOB DESCRIPTIONS
SMALLER JOBS
If you would like to help, but are not interested in taking a leadership role, that's cool too. There are several smaller jobs that support committee chairs which also need to be filled. Do it for our awesome SENIORS who have worked so hard and deserve this celebration!
