Local Scholarship Applications Released

Seniors met in the auditorium this morning during HR period and were given a list of all the available local scholarships. Click here for presentation. Last year, over 50 scholarships were awarded totaling over $100,000. Although we do not have exact figures for all of this year's scholarships, it is pretty fair to expect an amount very similar to last year.

To view scholarship list, click here. Although parents are welcome to look at the scholarship list, only students can stop in the guidance office to pick up the applications. The exception is the Cusac application which will be available on Friday using the link in the scholarship section. The presentation includes the projected monetary awards. Most of the amounts are accurate but there are adjustments possible.

All scholarships due Monday, March 30th at 3:00. No late applications will be accepted. This is the second year that students were given the opportunity to use spring break to complete applications. Hopefully this leads to more applications being returned.

Note: Many applications ask for recommendations. If a student plans to ask an IVC faculty member for a recommendation, he or she must ask the faculty member before Tuesday, March 17th so the faculty has ample time to complete recommendations.

ICC Placement Test - March 18th

ICC Placement Test


Any student planning to attend ICC next fall is required to take the placement test in order to determine placement for Math and English classes.


Juniors planning to take classes at ICC as a senior next year must also take the test.


Any student who does not take the test on March 13th will need to drive to ICC and take the test after school so it is to the students' advantage to take the test at IVC.


Exceptions: Check the picture above for the exceptions.

Local Scholarship Dates Coming Up Soon!

Each year, over $140,000 is given out in local scholarships. These scholarships range from $250 to $75,000. Last year, there were 45 different scholarships awarded to graduating seniors. With the growing cost of college, every penny helps.

Here is a breakdown of the upcoming dates...

Students will see a presentation on all of the available scholarships. They will also receive a handout which lists each scholarship.

Parents may not pick up the applications for the student. Students must pick up their own scholarship applications.

A How-to-Guide to Freshman Registration

Planning a schedule for freshman year can be quite an intimidating process. Hopefully this blog post will help students and parents through the process.

Class selection should also be inputted into TeacherEase before Monday (for those students with access to TeacherEase.)

The front side of the registration sheet is the demographic portion. It is important that it be filled out completely since the information will be entered into the computer system.
