During the Fall 2020 semester, TS-SM held a Webinar Series with great college and career preparation workshops, and students had the opportunity to earn prizes! For each webinar, we had a live zoom meeting the day of and an activity for students to complete if they weren't able to attend the live event.

Student names were entered into a prize drawing for each webinar they participated in/activity they completed. We gave out a prize two weeks after each webinar, and a grand prize to the student who participated in the most webinars/completed the most activities!

For the Scholarship webinar, we announced the winner on Monday, October 19th.

The Fall 2020 Grand Prize for the VIP, Very Involved Participant, winner was announced on Monday, November 30th.

Please select the option that best describes you:
What grade level are you (the student) in?
Which campus are you (the student) enrolled in?
The webinar and this activity is brought to you by two of our interns for the Fall 2020 semester, Ms. Madison Brooker and Ms. Kelsey Newman.
