GRAD 2025
There is a Scholarship meeting this Wednesday at lunch in room 49.
Stellys Parent Dry Grad fundraising committee is running an early Bottle Drive this month, on Dec 21 from 9-11am, and a refundables ‘drop off’ on Dec 28 from 9-12 to keep with our regular schedule. We would appreciate having about 7-9 volunteers for the 21st and need a smaller crew on the 28th (3-4 volunteers). Please reach out to kimmik@telus.net if you can help out or have questions, otherwise we look forward to receiving your refundables and turning them into a fantastic grad event for our 2025 grad class!
SCRAP METAL RECYCLING: There’s a large blue metal recycling bin in the upper parking lot by the street that is awaiting your scrap metal donations. If you have any metal stuff at home, in your yard or in the shed that you want to get rid of, it’s accessible 24/7 for drop-off and proceeds go towards the 2025 Stelly’s Dry Grad!
CAREER CENTRE
Thinking about a career in medicine? Two medical students from the University of British Columbia will be here today @ lunchtime in the Career Centre. They will be speaking about careers in medicine and how to apply to medical school.
For all things careers, check the Career Board or the Career Ed website linked HERE! There are lots of job and volunteer opportunities available - go check it out!
Stay Golden . . . and Maroon!
