Are you having trouble getting your new CCPS laptop up and running? 
Check out the document below for tips on getting started!

/schools/high/fsk/SchoolCounseling/Documents/New student laptops 1 to 1.pdf

 

FSK bell schedule is listed below, along with information and reminders about some supports we have in place!

Times to Log Into Classes via Google Meets (same start time, regardless of day of the week):
Mod 1 – 7:30 AM
Key Time/ Advisory – 8:55 AM (Advisory Lessons on Wednesdays)
Mod 2 – 9:30 AM
Mod 3 – 10:55 AM - Please check with your teacher – lunch could be at the beginning of the mod or later to align with the lunch time in hybrid setting
Mod 4 – 12:55 PM


Supports:  If you’re struggling academically, ask yourself:
• Are you attending class every day, and paying attention in class, and engaging in the work as teachers are teaching?
• Are you staying online with your teacher in their Google Meet during Asynchronous time? Staying online makes it easier to ask questions, get help, and stay accountable to do the work immediately.
• Are you using Key Time to meet with teachers when you are confused, lost or behind?
• Are you using time on Wednesday's to get caught up, meet with your teachers 1-on-1 or in small groups and ask questions? Just because the length of the meeting is not long does not mean you shouldn’t be “doing school” on Wednesday's.
• Have you attended after school tutoring? We have tutoring available specifically for English, Biology & Spanish (ask your teachers for the links on how to sign up!)

Wellness Wednesday's
I miss seeing you all at school!  I miss seeing you in the hallways or at lunch and being able to take a few seconds to catch up or answer a quick question.  I think most of us are missing those seemingly mundane interactions and, let's face it, current circumstances can leave us feeling a bit untethered.  Beginning Wednesday I'll be hosting "Wellness Wednesday's".  Simply join the meet link in the class ribbon at 9am for a check-in.  No agenda, no assignments...I just want to see how you're doing!  Looking forward to catching up!

As we embark on our 3 day weekend....Just a reminder to be working on your resume! Mrs. Adcock is available to assist you should you need help. Please e-mail her directly at jladcoc@carrollk12.org for resume assistance. A template and Resume Writing Guide has been provided as part of the assignment. If you have completed a resume as part of another class, you are welcome to update that resume and upload it to this Google Classroom. Mrs. Adcock will be reviewing all the resumes and providing feedback. Remember: A resume is a professional tool that will serve you well not only for mock interviews, but also in securing a summer job or internship, applying to colleges, etc.

This is absolutely the LAST CALL for you to submit your online course selection form to choose your classes for 21-22. This information has been available to all of you since January 13; we cannot move forward to build next year's master schedule until all course selections are submitted. I have been very willing to make myself available to help if assistance was needed and we are simply out of time. If you do not submit your form by next Tuesday, 2/16, I will have to make selections for you so please take a few minutes to submit that form. The scheduling website has links to the Program of Studies, your 4-year plans (also referred to as ECPs), as well as the link to the course selection form itself. All that you need to do is check off the classes on the form that are listed in your grade 12 column on your 4-year plan and then select any other classes that you wish to take until you have a total of 8 credits identified. Also available on the scheduling website are videos from each department about the class offerings in their area, as well as a video of me going over the course selection form.

Attention Juniors!  Ms. Adcock will be available to answer your resume questions
TODAY during advisory. Just click on the link (see below) in this Google Classroom to join.


As you prepare for the upcoming mock interviews, it is important to take the next step in the career preparation process: Creating your resume. This will serve as a professional document that you can use for applying to jobs, colleges, internships, etc. Please submit your resume here. Since this is your personal marketing document, you should select the option below that will allow you to create the best possible resume. Options for creating your resume: 1. Use the Resume Writing Guide (attached to this assignment) to assist you in creating your resume without a template. 2. Select a template from Google Docs or Microsoft Word - be sure to customize it appropriately and save it as a PDF before uploading here. 3. Canva is now an approved technology resource for CCPS, and can be found in the Student Resources section of Clever. You can search "High School Resume" templates in Canva, and select the template that you would like to customize. Then, you can save it and upload it here. 4. You can use the
Resume Template attached to this assignment. Be sure to delete any sections you are not
using and add sections as appropriate. If you have questions, or if you would like additional help, please contact Mrs. Adcock at jladcoc@carrollk12.org or join the Google Meet during advisory on February 10 (more sessions to be added).  The link for that Google Meet will be available in the banner of this Google Classroom.

Please remember that you must submit the online course selection form EVEN IF you met with me earlier this year to go over your 4-year plan. It only takes a few minutes to complete. All online course selection forms must be submitted by this Friday at the end of the school day!

Good Friday afternoon everyone!  A reminder that all online course selection forms must be submitted by the end of the school day next Friday, January 29th!  To date, only 25 students have submitted course requests for grade 12.  I will be available in my Google Classroom on Monday, 1/25, at the following times to provide assistance and answer questions:
**8:30-9:30 am
**10:30-11:00 am
**1:30-2:30 pm
Please plan to stop in if you need help or have any questions to ask me!
Have a great weekend all!

Hello Junior! As you begin to prepare for mock interviews, please take a few minutes to watch the attached video which will give you a basic overview of how to write your resume. Resume Templates are provided in this Google Classroom as well. Please e-mail Mrs. Adcock at jladcoc@carrollk12.org with any questions.

Good afternoon all!  It was great catching up with those of you that stopped by my Google Classroom today to chat about course selection!
A couple of questions that came up today in conversation:
**Item #1 should be your last name; I'm not sure why that was not listed there but I fixed it. **Yes, even if we had a meeting to review/revise your 4-year plan and discussed classes for next year, you do still need to complete the online course selection form. The link to the scheduling website was posted on January 19 and is listed below in the stream a couple of posts down.
The Program of Studies, copies of 4-year plans (ECP's),
and a link to the course selection form are all posted on the website.
**Yes, you still need to sign up for 8 credits in spite of other plans like dual enrollment, internships, etc. The reason for this is that we cannot finalize plans for those things until
later in the semester. If, for any reason, one of those plans would fall through (unlikely, but it could happen), then we have a full schedule here for you. It's like a Plan B---it's always wise to have a Plan B. An example of this would be if you are planning to take ENG 101 at CCC
next year, go ahead and put in the English class listed on your 4-year plan. We will remove that once your registration at CCC is completed. I will likely open up my classroom at least a few more times before course selections are due on 1/29. Look out for a post from me about that!

Parents & Senior Students - Back in November a senior diploma form was mailed with your students report card.  The form was due in our office on December 18th.  At this time, we are still missing a lot of forms.  Please complete the senior diploma form and return it to
Mrs. Fine ASAP!  The form will be accepted by email (llfine@carrollk12.org), mail or in person.

An example of the form is below.
If you have any questions or need another form, please let Mrs. Fine know.

As the winter holiday quickly approaches please realize college application materials (transcripts, LORs, etc.) will NOT BE PROCESSED over the break. 

How to Write Your Mock Interview Thank You Letter
Last presentation in the How to Prepare For Your Mock Interview Series.  Please e-mail your thank you letters to Mrs. Adcock at jladcoc@carrollk12.org prior to sending to the employer.

Mid-year transcripts will be sent to colleges when Semester 1 grades have been finalized.
The grading window for Semester 1 closes 1/29.
I will process mid-year reports in Naviance the first 2 weeks in February.


You can track your college application materials a few different ways.  You can track through Naviance, Common App, or directly through your college application portal.  If you applied using Common App go directly to the school to see if the documents have been downloaded.  In Naviance go to "Colleges I'm Applying To" and you will see if your transcript and supporting documents (initial materials) have been sent.  You can also view "Manage Transcripts" to confirm it has been sent.  Letters of Recommendation can be tracked by going to "Colleges-Home" tab and then "Letters of Recommendation".  In many instances the documentation has been sent or downloaded but colleges do not regularly update their application portal. Resending material electronically can slow down the process.  My recommendation is to CALL the admissions offices at each school to confirm they have all the documentation they need. When you speak to the representative confirm an email address and I am happy to resubmit material on your behalf.

Check out this video on google classrooms about "Resume Writing". 
You can also cut and paste the link below:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rGSjqZvxvqauKv3dZEjuB891Phhu9gv8/view

Check out the video on the google classroom regarding "Interviewing Do's and Dont's"
and the video on "How to Ace Your Virtual Mock Interview"


Please be sure to follow the College Application Check List.  I recommend printing it out and checking off items as you go.  CCPS REQUIRES me to use Naviance to submit all application material.  Be mindful of your college deadlines.  Counselors and Teachers require at least 2 weeks notice to submit documentation. 
Common mistakes when NOT following Check List:
Unmatched Common App/Naviance Account

view video on your Naviance home screen showing how to link accounts. 
Unknown Application Destination
you MUST select HOW you're applying to the university, via Common App
or directly to the Institution  
List of Colleges
If using Common App you must make sure the college appears in
your Common App account AND Naviance.


You all have been doing an excellent job with the College Application process so far, especially with using the new Naviance program!  Please keep in mind the following items:  Be mindful of College Application deadlines.  I require at least 2 or 3 weeks notice of any documentation you will need as well as teachers who may write a Letter of Recommendation for you.  Keep in mind we do not process items on weekends or holidays.  If you have a December 1st deadline items need to be submitted to me by the end of THIS WEEK to allow for sufficient processing time. 
If your college requires a "Written Evaluation" that is also known as a Counselor Letter of Recommendation, please go in to your application accounts (Naviance, Common App
and college specific) and double check.  If it is required and it is not complete please email me ASAP. Consider printing out the attached 'one page quick guide' on the college application process using Naviance.  Have it handy while you complete application steps online.

I miss seeing you all at school!  I miss seeing you in the hallways or at lunch and being able to take a few seconds to catch up or answer a quick question.  I think most of us are missing those seemingly mundane interactions and, let's face it, current circumstances can leave us feeling a bit untethered.  Beginning next Wednesday I'll be hosting "Wellness Wednesdays". Simply join the meet link in the class ribbon at 9am for a check-in.  No agenda, no assignments...I just want to see how you're doing!  Looking forward to catching up!

Typically as a Sophomore at Key you are provided the opportunity to order a class ring. I know not everyone has the means or even would like one as a Sophomore. That being said, if you are interested in a class ring, I’m attaching information for you to design and then order a pretty awesome keepsake through Balfour. Normally this would be done in person, however; much like most things in 2020 we’ve had to adjust. Class ring orders through Balfour may be purchased online using the following attachments and guides to selecting your class ring. In addition to that, we also will set up a Virtual Ring Ceremony for any students that purchase this keepsake this year on Thursday March 25, 2021. If you are unsure about purchasing a class ring or need more information, the link below offers a brief video and step by step tutorial that walks you through the process. There is a QR Code attached to the PowerPoint as well that will take you to Balfour’s ordering page and assist you in the creation and purchasing of your ring. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or need support throughout the process.

Great job on submitting your Course Selection sheets. You will not have access to the forms any longer. They were due 1/29. If you did not submit a form you will be placed in graduation required classes and those recommended by your academic teachers. We will be moving forward with the scheduling process. The next step will be to build the master schedule where we determine what classes will be offered during specific mods in the day and semesters or quarters. I will not be accepting any changes at this time. Students will have an opportunity to change classes this summer. Have a great LAST semester of middle school. Work hard and finish strong! Stay tuned for an evening presentation this spring to talk more about high school.
 
Course Selection Forms are DUE FRIDAY!  All forms must be submitted electronically.
Please see the letter attached for directions.  Forms are automatically saved.
Thanks and have a great day!

/schools/high/fsk/SchoolCounseling/Documents/Class of 2025 parent course selection letter.doc

Paper copies of the Course Selection Sheets will be mailed early next week to the address listed on the student's emergency form.

It was great seeing you all during my presentation on Monday in English class.  I'll be back tomorrow to answer any questions you may have about the course selection process.  Please remember to edit the course selection sheet using Kami.  The document will save automatically and I will be able to view your selections.  Be sure you are logged on to your school email and password when opening your course selection sheet.  We are asking ALL students to complete the electronic form by January 29th unless they are receiving paper packets due to pre-approved connectivity issues.  Students in the A hybrid cohort received a paper copy of their course selection sheet.  Students in the B hybrid cohort will receive a paper copy.  Students remaining virtual will have a copy mailed home on Friday and should receive it early next week. 
See you all soon :) Mrs. Headley


Thank you to all parents and students that attended our Virtual Course Information Night last week. We are looking forward to continuing the course selection process with your students this week – in person with students that are attending hybrid and online with students that are remaining virtual. Several resources can be found on our Scheduling Website (https://sites.google.com/carrollk12.org/course-selection-resources/home) including the Program of Studies, individual student course selection sheets (students should be logged into their CCPS credentials) and videos from the January 7th conference night. Some reminders: • Course Selection Sheets are due no later than January 29th. Questions about leveling should be directed to current teachers. Any other questions can be directed to school counselor, Ms. Headley, at llheadl@carrollk12.org . • Be on the look out for more meetings and info sessions in late spring and early summer so we can continue to share updates with you and your student.
