Student announcements - March 6, 2017

Good morning,

Today is the last day to get your Cinderella’s Closet application in.  See Ms. Crider if you have questions.

Do you sing?  Would you like to sing even better?  You can just sign up for Concert Chorus.  For more of a challenge, consider honors level choir classes next year.  There is a 10 minute audition required.  Se Ms. Johnson in C-111 for details OR google “CHS chorus and orch” and look under auditions for all that you need to prepare.  Audition sign ups will be on the bulletin board outisde C-111 for dates in March.

Interested in Graphic Design, Photography, Animation, Game Design, Web Design and Video Production? Then consider taking Adobe Academy Courses at Carrboro High School, where you can develop production techniques for these creative careers using Adobe software, the industry standard.
Adobe Visual Design, offers certification in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe InDesign with a focus on graphic design.
Adobe Digital Design offers certification in Adobe Dreamweaver and develops animation and web design skills.
Adobe Video Design offers certification in Adobe Premiere and develops video and audio  production skills.
All three of these CTE Adobe courses have honors options. For more information, please see Ms. Landis in E115.

2017-2018 Student Government election forms are now available! This year, along with officer campaigns, one senator from each grade will be elected this spring. Forms for both officer and senator candidacy can be found next to the bulletin board in front of the Lower E wing. All forms are due by WEDNESDAY MARCH 15th! Good luck!

Covenant Place needs a student volunteer to teach older adults simple computer skills, how to set up an email account, how to create and save a Word document, simple web searches, etc.  We have approximately 40 residents but I would estimate 10 – 12 would actually participate.  I thought it might be nice to have residents meet with the student volunteer in small groups (2-3) or even one on one depending on skill level.  The number of hours will vary depending on what the student want to do and is able to accomplish.
