STUDENT SECTION

SCHOOL WISDOM OF THE DAY: Thoughtful fast reading actually increases your comprehension by forcing greater concentration. (Radford)

ATTENTION LANCERS: Come out and support our boy's and girl's swim and dive teams TOMORROW, Thursday, April 24th at parkway pool in downtown Chula Vista at 3pm. We will be taking on Mar Vista for the League Championships. Both schools come into Thursday's match undefeated in league and this has traditionally been an incredible meet. This will be our first home match against Mar Vista in 4 years and we want to pack the place with Lancers! Remember, this Thursday at 3pm at Parkway Pool. GO LANCERS!!! (Salts)

SENIORS: Southwestern Community College will be hosting a tour of the campus for seniors who will be attending next year on May 7th from 9:00 am to 12:30 pm. Please pick up permission slips in the counseling office, they must be returned to Mrs. Harken by this Friday April 25th! (Harken)

************SCHOLARSHIPS / COLLEGE**************

SENIORS: This is reminder that May 1 is the deadline to submit intent to enroll declarations for any CSU or UC school. With limiting enrollments occurring at many of the campuses, it is important that students do not miss this deadline. I know for SDSU, it will not be forgiven unless there is a true emergency situation. (Kaine)

SENIORS: If you have school spirit by being involved in sports, ASB, clubs or drama/music, then the M & M scholarship is for you!! $300 to a Hilltop student. Preferably, going to SDSU, and a plus if going into education. This one is due May 5th. Come by the counseling center and get an application.

SENIORS: If you filled out a Junior Seau Scholarship, make sure there are 3 sheets to the application. Some applications are missing a sheet. See Ms. Gerlack if you need one.

NEED A FUN AND INTERESTING ELECTIVE NEXT YEAR? Take a Southwestern College Class here on campus. Southwestern will be offering Art 104, an Art History Course and AJ 111, administration of justice next Fall! If you are interested, please see your counselor ASAP! Thank You! (Gerlack)

FACULTY SECTION

PLC TIDBIT OF THE DAY: Focus groups should be used when issues and concerns among stakeholder groups are not immediately apparent to your team; when you need to understand the full range of perceptions of an issue; when you want to compare perceptions between different groups; when you feel that having interviewees together in the same room at the same time will spark greater insights and creativity.
