Weekly Update 12/14/08

Greetings!

The Class of ‘09 will be the subject of ongoing announcements over the next few months....starting with
CONGRATULATIONS to Jonathan Monroe who has been accepted to Manhattan Marymount College with a $24,000 academic merit scholarship!

Parents of underclassmen of all ages should mark their calendars for Saturday, January 10th at 2:30 PM. As part of our Open House open to the public (which is also a great way for our own families to check out other divisions of our school) we will be running a session detailing Camelot’s strategic college/career guidance program. Never has it been more important for students to find, select and be accepted to the college that is the right fit for them. Camelot students typically graduate prepared to enter college with many dual enrollment college credits already under their belts and with outstanding merit award offers to attend colleges. Please join me to learn more about our comprehensive and strategic guidance program - truly one of the “jewels” of Camelot.

Go, Knights- we had one win and one loss last week - both games hard fought. Thanks to everyone who turned out in support - it makes a real difference.

PLEASE NOTE THERE IS ONE PRACTICE SCHEDULED OVER BREAK - Friday, Jan 2 at 11 AM and ONE GAME on Monday, January 5th. Players will get more details from Krista this week.
