{Patsy CHilcote}

 Congratulations!
Patsy Chilcote
CTE Career Counselor at Ryan High School
 
Ms. Chilcote was recently named the
Guidance Educator of the Year
 by the Career and Technology Educators of North Texas 
 
 
 

High school juniors who are enrolled in a Texas public school district or charter school have a one-time opportunity to take one free college admissions test this year.

 

Important - Information on the availability of vouchers:

 

The vouchers are only available for 11th grade students

 

Vouchers are available for the May or June 2010 SAT reasoning test

 

·         The registration deadline for the May test has been extended through Wednesday, March 31st

 

·         Students ARE allowed to use the voucher for a retest (i.e. if they've already taken the SAT)

 

·         Students with a College Board account were emailed voucher numbers already

 

·         Vouchers for students without a College Board Account were sent via mail on Monday, March 22 to schools, and will be addressed to the lead guidance counselor (it may take a while to receive them since bulk mail can be slower)

 

·         If you need to request extra vouchers or check the status of the vouchers you are supposed to receive, call 888-728-4357

 

·         If parents or students wish to request a voucher, they may call 866-756-7346.

 

April 10 or June 12 ACT

·         Deadline for April 10 has passed but ACT will reimburse if they are already registered. June 12 registration deadline is May 7.

·         ACT vouchers should be available in Counseling Centers soon.   http://www.act.org/

 

 
 
The Registration Videos for 2010-2011 School Year are now available for viewing.  Please click "HS Registration Video" in the left hand column to see the information being presented to current 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th grade students registering for classes for next year.  The companion video, titled Career and Technical Education Registration, will help guide you as you select classes leading to well defined career/college major pathways. 
 
Important Video Notes: 
  • In the Fine Arts section of the video, Orchestra was inadvertently omitted. Be aware that ALL Fine Arts Classes (any Art, Dance, Music, Theatre class) will satisfy the Fine Art requirement for graduation. 
  • There may be additional decisions made in the area of Career and Technical Education courses which may count as 4th credit in math and science.  We will post that information when it becomes available.
For more information about either video, please contact your high school counselors and career counselors.
