Employment! Employment! Employment!Hello Midtown Community ~Registration for the spring 2024 session with AVA (Atlanta Virtual Academy) part-time program will begin today Tuesday Dec 12 and ends Tuesday January 2, 2024, as all courses begin Wednesday January 3, 2024.For the many students who are interested in taking one and/or possibly even two classes virtually through the AVA platform during this upcoming spring semester in conjunction with their Midtown HS schedule, then you may want to proceed with this registration process. This is NOT for those seeking to enroll in full-time virtual school during the spring 2024 semester - that link is HERE and is a completely different process.Carefully read instructions below.Why would or should you take a virtual course through AVA's part-time program?- Reason #1 - You failed a course or courses from the previous semester or previous year, and you did not re-enroll in the course, nor did you enroll in any credit recovery program, and so now you are in need to recover the credit and/or redo the course(s). - This is CR or Credit Recovery.
- Reason #2 - You're on-track for graduation and you are simply seeking to get ahead in your credits. You're interested in taking a course or courses that you'd ordinarily take in the next school year. Therefore, when you take a course in this manner it allows you to advance and possibly graduate early. - This is IC or Initial Credit.
1. Once you are on the AVA application/registration website, the first page is general demographic information. Please appropriately complete this portion. Reach out to the counselors if you do not know your network ID or lunch number.2. The second page is where you will select your course(s). You may select up to two. However, for students who need or are seeking to take only one course, you should select "No 2nd Course Needed". When you're viewing the courses, you'll see the letters A and B are written at the end of each course. The letter "A" represents the course's 1st or fall semester's portion, and "B" is the 2nd spring semester's portion. Then for the CR and IC, again remember the CR is credit recovery, while IC is initial credit. Keep in mind that you just completed the 1st semester, so if you're seeking to redo a course from this previous semester (1st or fall semester 2023), then be sure to select a course with an "A" immediately after the course name - make sense?3. The website's third page - this is where you must select your assigned counselor. See bulleted below for who your counselor is:- If you are a 10-12th grader with last names A-G, your counselor is Rucker, Katrina and her email is Katrina.rucker@atlanta.k12.ga.us
- If you are a 10-12th grader with last names H-Pe, your counselor is Young, Lamar and his email is Ljyoung@atlanta.k12.ga.us
- If you are a 10-12th grader with last names Ph-Z, your counselor is Falcone, Chelsea and her email is Chelsea.falcone@atlanta.k12.ga.us
- All 9th graders, your counselor is Blevins-Pellechia, Tina and her email is Tblevins2@atlanta.k12.ga.us
Once your application has been successfully submitted, it will be reviewed by your counselor, and if approved your counselor will provide you with your course(s) details on or before Friday January 5, 2024. Please do not email requesting a rush for this information as the approval process takes time as your transcript must be reviewed prior to us enrolling you into any of these virtual courses. Moreover, no student will be granted access to any of these courses prior to Wednesday January 3, 2024.Please carefully review these dates ~-

For the 11th and 12th graders, some of you may want to consider taking the ASVAB - the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery.

Though it'sused as a requirement for military enlistment, taking the exam DOES NOT automatically enlist you into military services. So, it is strongly suggested that for those students who are curious, undecided on what the next phase of their life holds for them, and those who are just simply trying find their way should take this assessment while still in high school. It's free (no cost) and is only offered twice this school year - the next and final administration will be Monday February 5, 2024. To register see HERE or HERE. To learn more about the ASVAB, see HERE.

Some of you may want to consider taking the ASVAB - the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery. Taking the ASVAB is an excellent way for you to discover what things you are good at as this is one of the very best aptitude tools out there. Though it is used as a requirement for military enlistment, taking the exam DOES NOT automatically enlist you into military services. So, it is strongly suggested that for those students who are curious, undecided on what the next phase of their life holds for them, and those who are just simply trying find their way should take this assessment while still in high school. It's free (no cost) and is only offered twice this school year - the administration is Monday February 5, 2024. To register see HERE or HERE. To learn more about the ASVAB, see HERE.

Yes, we still have a community service requirement where students from your graduating classes are required to complete 75 verifiable community service hours. Many have asked yes; these hours or experiences can be completed with outside agencies as there are tons of opportunities throughout the community.The preference and first line of research, however, should always be to find these experiences and log your hours within a system called MyVoluntier. The MyVoluntier platform is embedded in every student's MyBackpack portal which is in essence a "one-stop shop" for a student's apps and files within their APS account. Below is the screenshot of an example of where you are able to find the MyVoluntier app in your MyBackpack. It's the blue lightbulb icon usually embedded somewhere in the middle of all the apps found in Mybackpack. Here's the website to access your MyBackpack account: MyBackpack. Here is the direct website where you will access your MyVoluntier account: MyVoluntier.You will use your same APS network login credentials to access both your MyBackpack and MyVountier accounts.Next, here is a quick guide sheet for how you are to locate and/or upload your volunteer experiences within the MyVoluntier platform: 2023 MyVoluntier How To Guide for StudentsLastly, for volunteer experiences outside of the MyVoluntier network, we housed them here: 2024 Events Upcoming Academic, Community-based, Employment. And if you ever complete a volunteer experience with any of these events, then you must simply get the person who sponsored or supervised it to write you a letter on the agency's or organization's official letterhead that contains the following items bulleted below, and you must submit this letter to your Midtown HS counselor ~- A description of what community service project you assisted with or completed.
- Your total number of hours
- The date(s) you served or volunteered
- Their full contact information
Juniors-We are scheduled to attend the NAHS College Fair on Friday August 25.Here's the list of colleges/universities who are slated to be in attendance: 2023 NAHS Colleges, Universities & Technical InstitutionsHere's the permission form: 2023-24 NAHS College Fair Permission FormAttendance/Transportation: We will only have one APS school bus as our form of transportation - subsequently, we are gearing to take only <40 highly motivated, college prep, college bound 12th and 11th graders. Reservations are based on a first-come-first-serve structure, so once we (the counselors) have received <40 permission forms completed correctly, the trip will be closed. Parents/guardians who seek to take their own children are free to do so, however, supervision will be the sole responsibility of that parent/guardian for their own children. For the students who'll be riding the APS bus, this is a district sponsored event and the periods for which these students miss - which we're estimating periods 2B and 3B, will be appropriately coded upon our arrival back to Midtown. For the students who attend with their parent, the parent is responsible for providing our attendance department with the appropriate documentation.Preparation: It is strongly recommended for 12th graders to bring a copy of their transcript. How's that done? Please submit your request via your account in Midtown's Parchment platform. When doing so, make certain that you carefully identify your high school start/end years because if you get it wrong, you will sadly be charged every time you use the service. Parchment is a free service for our current students. Once you submit your request, your assigned counselor will upload and electronically send your transcript to whatever destination you've specified in your request. So, in this instance, you should indicate that you're the recipient or destination. Then you'll be able to print your transcript and have it with you at the fair for college admissions reps to review. Make sense? Here's the link: 2023-24 Midtown's Parchment Link and Instructions.Ready to go? Let's get it.Here's the link again to the permission form: 2023-24 NAHS College Fair Permission Form which should be delivered to us, whether it be a hard copy or electronically, no later than Friday August 11 3:50pm.Senior Advisement: Be sure that you've scheduled your required senior advisement meeting with your assigned counselor.

Hope this helps. Tell your classmates who have not joined the guidance dept's email database to do so asap, by making one submission via this link: 2023-24 Student Parent Email Cell Contact SubmissionHello Midtown Community ~Registration for the 2023 fall session with AVA (Atlanta Virtual Academy) part-time program will begin today Monday July 24.For the many students who are interested in taking one and/or possibly even two classes virtually through the AVA platform during this upcoming fall semester in addition to their Midtown HS schedule, then you may want to proceed with this registration process. Carefully read instructions below.Why would or should you take a virtual course through AVA's part-time program?- Reason #1 - You failed a course or courses from the previous semester or previous year, and you did not re-enroll in the course, nor did you enroll in any credit recovery program, and so now you are in need to recover the credit and/or redo the course(s). - This is called CR or Credit Recovery.
- Reason #2 - You're on-track for graduation and you are simply seeking to get ahead in your credits. You're interested in taking a course or courses that you'd ordinarily take in the next school year. Therefore, when you take a course in this manner it allows you to advance and possibly graduate early. - This is called IC or Initial Credit.
See this link to submit your application:Once you are on the AVA application/registration website, the first page is general demographic information. Please appropriately complete this portion. Reach out to the counselors if you do not know your network ID or lunch number.The second page is where you will select your course(s). You may select up to two. However, for students who need or are seeking to take only one course, you'll have to select the same course twice, otherwise the site will not allow you to move forward. The letters A and B are written next to each course. The letter "A" represents the course's 1st semester's portion, and "B" is the 2nd semester's portion. Then for the CR and IC, again remember the CR is credit recovery, while IC is initial credit.The website's third page - this is where you must select your assigned counselor. See here for who your counselor is:- If you are a 10-12th grader with last names A-G, your counselor is Rucker, Katrina and her email is Katrina.rucker@atlanta.k12.ga.us
- If you are a 10-12th grader with last names H-Pe, your counselor is Young, Lamar and his email is Ljyoung@atlanta.k12.ga.us
