Interested in the military? Wondering what career might be a good fit for you? If so, you should consider taking the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, or ASVAB. Simley will offer the exam next Tuesday, November 22nd. It is open to students in grades 10-12. The ASVAB is required to enlist in any branch of the military. The test also includes an excellent career exploration component- beneficial for all students, interested in the military or not. For more information and to sign-up, see Ms. Kimble in the Student Center. 

 

The Simley College Fair will be Friday, November 18th! More than 50 colleges and universities will be represented. This is an excellent opportunity to explore many different college options right here at school. All students grades 10-12 will attend the fair and students will be getting more information and register for the fair during English class in the next couple of days.

 

Attention German Club members! There will be a meeting at 8:10am this Friday in Mr. Mitchell's room.

Did you know that breakfast is free for all students everyday?  While we have returned to paying for lunch, breakfast is still free for everyone.  Stop by the to-go cart in the commons or go directly to the cafeteria each day before school to pick up your breakfast and feed your brain for the morning.  

If you need help paying for lunch, please complete the educational benefits application, which can be done on the parent portal or on a form found in the guidance office.
