Upcoming College Reps on Campus
Tues., December 5th: Univ. of Health Sciences & Pharmacy (formerly STL College of Pharmacy)
Class of 2027 4 Year Plan
Mrs. DeCosty will be meeting with all of the freshmen during their wellness classes on Thursday and Friday to get their “4 Year Plan” set up in Skyward. This document serves two purposes. It is a part of the A+ Scholarship requirements. It is also a way for the students to map out their four years here at St. Pius X. This plan is revisited each year to make any necessary changes. Please know that this plan does not dictate their classes from year to year. It is a way for them to start thinking about the bigger picture of their time here. If you would like to discuss this with your freshman you can find our course catalog here.
