Memo to A.C.T. Prep. Parents: Please Sign and Return

Memo
To: Mr. Helenius, Mr. Roark, and Mr. Smith’s A.C.T. /College Prep. Class
From: Mr. Roark
Re: Class Expectations


Your son or daughter was given a hard copy of this. Please sign and return to Mr. Roark.

Dear Parent/Guardian:
Your son or daughter has enrolled in A.C.T./College Prep. Class. Therefore, I am committed to doing everything I can to help him/ her gain admittance into a college, and also providing information that will be helpful in that process. There are some basic expectations of the course:
1. Every student will go on at least one college visit this semester
2. Every student will keep a portfolio of his/her coursework
3. Every student will assume responsibility for his/her work/grade
4. Every student will complete at least 3 practice tests
There are other expectations. Those are laid out in the course syllabus. All of my personal expectations and assignments will be listed on a blog: actpreproarkstyle.blogspot.com. Please peruse it at your convenience. Mr. Helenius, Mr. Smith, the guidance department, and the administration are committed to helping your student reach his/her potential. When information is given, it is vital. Please be in constant communication with your student throughout this process. Financial Aid, Tuition and Room and Board Costs, College majors/minors, Standardized Testing, and even “college life” are all focuses of the class. Please encourage your student to take advantage of the opportunities coming this semester. Those who have in years past have long reaped the rewards of their labor. Good luck this new school year.

I acknowledge that my student, _____________________, has read this memo.
