Happy Friday, Live Oaks Families,
We have completed the first quarter of the school year already. This next quarter will fly by in every way! The first semester ends Thursday, December 17.
We are currently ramping up our recruitment efforts for next year's class. Applications open November 23. Our amazing group of student ambassadors are out almost every day in October presenting to sophomores from their home schools. Sophomore visit days are then scheduled for November 19 and 20. Any current student that is not assisting in their lab that day will be on a work-based learning experience or completing a work-based learning assignment at home. Students will get further details from their lab instructor. We also know that YOU are wonderful ambassadors for us with your friends that have sophomores. We all know that getting students matched in the right lab is just amazing. We appreciate your help spreading the word.
Have a great long weekend!
Dr. Amy Crouse
Dean of Instruction
