Education is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know. - Daniel J. Boorstin

Are your brains bursting with all of the 

information we received today?

I realize that not all of you are planning on emergency services or nursing, BUT there is much info to be had just from hearing about the different programs and how they work.  Please keep an open and POSITIVE mind as we listen to our guest speakers.  You never know what might click in your head!
Remember - it is all about useable skills and knowledge.  No more checking the boxes! (or cynically manipulating the system!)

Did you know that California is piloting a program to get your Bachelors from a Community College?

Check out THIS article to learn more about which schools are currently participating!

Thinking about Las Positas?

• THIS SATURDAY is a student and parents info day! I hear it is a great resource so please check it out even if you are just throwing around the idea of Las Po.
• The month of February is early admissions! Apply now and get a leg up on the classes you want! I have fliers in my classroom that go through the admissions process step by step.  See me if you need help!
• Check out these two fliers for more information - FLIER 1 and FLIER 2
