STUDENT SERVICES

Attention Seniors!! This is IMPORTANT information about scholarships!! The Student Services Department now has a 26 page Scholarship Grid online listing over 150 scholarships! The majority of these scholarships are from the local and state level but some are also scholarships offered nationally. 
 
To check out this vitally important information go to the Student Services tab on our school website and click on Scholarships. Then scroll down and click on the 2012-2013 Scholarship Grid!  
 
There are also paper copies available in Student Services! 
 
Please ask your School Counselor if you have more specific question about any particular scholarship!

 

The Menomonee Falls High School Student Services Department would like to give students the opportunity to learn and discuss topics of teen concern through a variety of Student Focus Groups.  Ideas for Focus Groups include:  Planning For Life After High School, Relationships, Self-Esteem, Family Conflict, Depression, Conflict Resolution, Alcohol and Other Drugs, Grief/Loss and more. 

 

In your 3rd hour class today, you will receive a purple flyer further explaining these opportunities.  Groups are a great way to discuss topics with teens your same age in a confidential way.  All groups will run during the school day, and will rotate hours so students are not missing a specific class more than once. 

 

If you have further questions regarding groups or after receiving the flyer, please see any Student Services Staff Member.  Today before leaving 3rd hour, please complete the purple flyer and check whether you are interested or not in a Focus group.   Please hand the form to your teacher upon completion. 

 

The New Year is a great time to look ahead and invest in your future!  Give consideration to participating in a Student Focus Group that can make a difference!
