We are in third place for the GetSchooled Challenge – we are SO CLOSE to winning the national competition and get the celebrity visit. We are losing because students are not all logging onto GetSchooled.com, setting up an account and doing the college activities. Our seniors are holding up their end by doing their financial aid forms! Encourage students to log on. Let’s go Fashion!
