Greetings!

I wanted to provide you with information about the upcoming Fall 2024 Greater Los Angeles NACAC College Fair at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Wednesday, September 25, 2024. This event has historically been a fantastic opportunity for our students and their families to connect with representatives from over 200 colleges and universities nationwide. In previous years, the fair has attracted more than 10,000 students and parents (please see the attached flyer for more details).

Online Student Registration: Students are encouraged to register online in advance of the fair. Doing so will allow them to receive a printed or electronic barcode, which they can use at the event to save time when speaking with college representatives. While online registration is optional, it is highly recommended to streamline the experience.

Additionally, the College Matchmaking feature has been updated and will be available during the registration process. This tool helps students connect with colleges and universities that align with their interests, enhancing their experience at the fair.

If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Best regards,
Kene

Dear Da Vinci Connect Students!

October marks the beginning of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we’re excited to share a heartfelt initiative with you.

On October 2nd and 3rd, we invite all students to join hands in a show of support by wearing pink!

By wearing pink, we not only raise awareness for breast cancer but also demonstrate our unity in the face of adversity. Each pink garment becomes a symbol of hope, reminding us of the importance of early detection and prevention!

Let’s come together, in pink, and make a profound statement about our commitment to making a difference. Your small gesture can lead to significant change!

We look forward to seeing our hallways and classrooms awash in shades of pink on these days. Thank you for embracing this initiative with open hearts.

Connect High School will be hosting the PSAT on Wednesday, October 25th at 8:30am.

There will be a Google Form link emailed out to 10th grade students and their parents/guardians this afternoon – Tuesday, September 19th. If you would like to be eligible to take the PSAT, you will have to submit your request on the Google Form no later than Thursday, September 29th.

Before you submit your response, please note that:

The PSAT test will take place on Wednesday, October 25th – this is an asynchronous day for Connect HS, so you will need to arrange for transportation to the Da Vinci Connect HS campus.
There will be limited space available for 10th grade students. Not all students who register will be able to take the PSAT on October 25th.
Students will need to arrive no later than 8:30am. Late arrivals will not be admitted to the test.
Once you are registered for the PSAT, you will be notified with more information on specifics for the test date.

Also, Connect Crew is giving all students this Valentine’s an opportunity to send a Candy Gram to another student on campus! You can send it to your friend, a classmate, or maybe a special someone!

You have the option to add your name on the gram or remain anonymous. You also have the option to add a fun little note to the gram! (Please do not write anything inappropriate– We will be reviewing each note before distribution.)

This form will close on Tuesday, February 14th. Candy Gram distribution will take place on Thursday, February 16th & Friday, February 17th during the Advisory period.
