JVS Sophomore Presentations

On December 6th, Dave Keller presented to all 10th graders during their history courses. Students learned about the programs offered at the Lorain County JVS, an accredited career-technical training school.

All sophomores selected two programs that they would like to learn more about during the JVS Sophomore Career Day field trip on January 27th, 2022.

PSAT/NMSQT Scores

Students can now access their PSAT/NMSQT (10th and 11th grade) or PSAT 9 (9th grade) test scores.

Students will need to access their scores through their Collegeboard accounts. If students do not have a Collegeboard account, they will need to create one.

Please go to collegeboard.org to either create an account or sign in to your existing account. Here is a quick video on how to interpret your scores and how they can be helpful in preparing for the SAT.

Please see your counselor with any questions.

DEPARTMENT NEWS

Social Studies Department

Social studies students spent the week of November 8th honoring Veterans Day through a variety of activities. Some interviewed veterans and put together a display of their interviews and pictures in the lobby for the school to see. Others conducted video interviews and sophomore Ava Gilles’ interview with her grandpa was aired on SNL. Some classes did a live Q and A session.

On Thursday, November 11th, MLS student volunteers assisted at the dedication of Patriot’s Park while others helped serve at a Veterans Day community luncheon sponsored by the VFW Post 1662.

Thank you, veterans! We hope to honor your service by remembering your stories.
