Sophomore Guidance Project

During the month of February the sophomore students spent a couple weeks working on a project with the guidance counselors.  They took a personality profile and career interest survey, completed research on a career of their choice, and made a poster about a college.   If you are interested in viewing the results of your son/daughter's personality profile, please send an email to his/her guidance counselor.  The report is accessible online and may offer some great insight into your student's learning style, as well as some of their strengths and blindspots. 

The personality profile is a shorter version of the Myers & Briggs test, which is most commonly used to help people assess what career they might be best suited for based on their personality type.  According to Myer's & Briggs, we all fall into one of sixteen personality types.  Here is a link to some more information on the test itself and the specific personality types: Myers & Briggs. 

The sophomores are assigned to their counselor based on last name.  Here is how they are broken down, along with email addresses should you like to view the report:

• Students whose last name begins with A - L are assigned to Jamie Vaughan, jvaughan@town.hull.ma.us.
• Students whose last name begins with M - Z are assigned to Maureen Kelliher, mkelliher@town.hull.ma.us.

ELA MCAS (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) March 20th - 22nd

This is a reminder to all parents and guardians of current sophomores, that the administration of the English Language Arts MCAS begins tomorrow.

Students will be testing during periods A,B, and C.  Those students who need additional time will be provided it.

It is of the utmost importance that students are present on MCAS administration days.  Earning a passing score on each of the three MCAS tests (ELA, Mathematics, and Science) is mandatory in order to receive a high school diploma.

Please advise your student to get proper rest and eat a nutritious breakfast before sitting for their MCAS tests this week and beyond.

If you have any questions about upcoming MCAS testing, please contact Mr. Sivo at 925-3000 x1108

Junior Parent Evening & SAT Registration

Thank you so much to all the parents and students who came out last Thursday for Junior Parent Evening!  Hopefully you found the information useful and are ready to begin that college search.

For anyone who could not make it, we will be sending home a copy of the information packet we handed out.  The kids will be given this during tomorrow's (3/14) Advisory period.  The students are being instructed to bring the packet home to their parents, so please be on the look out for it!  This packet has an access code to Family Connection, our application management system that will help facilitiate you in the college applicatoin process.  Please email your child's counselor if you have any questions.

Also in Advisory, all juniors will recieve a copy of their College Board username and password.  They will need this in order to register for the SATs, which they do online.  The vast majority of students created a College Board account last year when we returned their PSAT scores.  It is VERY important that they do not create a second account.  The UN/PW they receive tomorrow will give them access to the account they created last year.  Please keep this in a safe place as it will be used often over the next year!

Students can begin registering for the May and June SATs at any time.  We say the sooner the better!  The registration deadline for May is April 6th.  The deadline for the June test is May 8th.  Registration takes place at www.collegeboard.com.
