Are you interested in a career in the military? Do you need assistance in finding a career that is just for you?  If you are in 10th, 11th, or 12th grade, then this announcement is for you!

 

  • On the morning of November 1st, the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery, otherwise referred to as the ASVAB test will be given in the IMC from 8:30-11:30am. This test is the most widely used aptitude test that measures your strengths, weaknesses, and potential for future success. The ASVAB just doesn't tell you what you are currently good at, it will also tell you what you may be good at learning. If you are serious about joining the military or want to find a career that fits you, consider the ASVAB! 

 

  • To sign up to take the ASVAB test on November 1st please stop by the school counseling office and sign up with Ms. Uchtman or Ms. Sylvester by Tuesday, October 25th.
