Lancer Families,
It is hard to believe we are already closing in on the halfway point in the school
year. January and February are critical months for our Lancers. Recent history shows us
that students are less likely to attend school this time of year. Weather and illness are
certainly factors, but so is the fact that we are in middle of the year. The newness of a fresh
start has long worn off and June is nowhere in sight. This is when we need everyone to do
everything they can to help all of our students stay engaged.
A great way to monitor the progress of the Lancer(s) in your life is to utilize the Infinite
Campus Parent Portal. Access to updated grades can help seed a conversation around
progress in school. Please contact Linda Dresang at 204-3659 if you need assistance
using this important resource. As a reminder, if you know of a student looking for a quiet
place for extra help with homework, please consider peer tutoring during lunch in the LLC or
after school homework club in the LMC.
I wish you all a restful and rejuvenating break. Thank you all for the support you provided
our school and community so far this year.
With Purpose and Pride,
Chad Wiese
Principal

Plays etc.), please call Ms. Kelley at 204-3643 at least one week in advance to schedule an

Spanish Department Trip Abroad Information
Attention Families of Spanish students: The LHS Spanish department offers a trip abroad
every other year for students who have completed at least Spanish 3 by the time the trip
occurs. In the next month or so, interested students will vote on proposed itineraries to
select our tour for 2015. In mid to late March, there will be a parent meeting to go through
all the details. These trips cost between about $2000 to $3000, and we will do several
fund-raisers to help defray the cost. There are also some scholarships for which students
can apply. Please e-mail Ms. K. Ferguson at kferguson@madison.k12.wi.us if you have
questions.
MSCR/CLC Homework Club and Other Clubs Available
Students who need help with homework or a quiet space to study can come to the LMC
Mondays from 2:24-4:00pm and Tuesdays-Thursdays from 3:30-5:00pm. Students are
able to access computers, get help with homework from school day teachers and tutors.
Additionally, there are multiple clubs we are offering in January: Latin Dance Club,

Important Information from Student Services
La Follette High School Local Scholarship Application
Each year, La Follette High School seniors have the opportunity to apply for local scholarships
that are generously donated by local groups, organizations and families. The La Follette
Scholarship Committee is responsible for reviewing the applications and for awarding the
scholarships to students. Every year, there are more deserving students than scholarships.
However, it is important to remember that each scholarship is unique in its criteria. Most
scholarships have one or more of the following criteria: academic achievements, probable
major, leadership, school/community service, financial need, personal or family hardship and/
or unique circumstances (illness or disability). Not all scholarships are based on academic
achievements. To qualify for a La Follette local scholarship, a student must fill out an
application and be:
• A senior that is on-track to graduate
• Planning on continuing your education after high school - 4 year school, Madison College
(including college transfer and technical/vocational programs), 2 year UW System school
or technical school
• A senior who has attended La Follette for a minimum of six full terms, one of which must
be the 16th term or, in the case of early graduation, the final term
• Able to attend the May 21, 2014 Senior Award Night – THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT
Scholarship applications are available at this location: http://oldweb.madison.k12.wi.us/m/
misc/laf/scholarships/
Once you are in, your username is your student identification number.
All applications must be completed and submitted online by Friday, January 31, 2014. The
website will close at 11:59 p.m. on that date. Once you have completed the entire application,
save, submit and print two copies. Return one copy to Ms. Dresang OR Ms. Dumbleton by
4:00 p.m. Monday, February 3, 2014. NO LATE APPLICATIONS ARE ACCEPTED so
begin working as soon as possible!
Career Cruising – Internet Career Exploration/Planning Program
La Follette students have access to an Internet based program called Career Cruising. Career
Cruising has the reputation of being a cutting edge, online career guidance and planning
system. People of all ages use these tools to find the right career, explore education and
training options, and build their own portfolio. The products provided to us extend the
functionality of Career Cruising, making it easier for schools to manage their course selection
process, communities to meet their workforce development needs, and students to prepare for
the SAT/ACT. We are hopeful that parents will be pro-active and encourage their students
to be using Career Cruising. Seniors should be using Career Cruising as an additional
scholarship tool.
To use Career Cruising follow these steps: Log on to La Follette High School website, click
on Career Cruising Icon on lower left of the screen.
Username = mmsd-(your ID number) Example: mmsd-125634
Password = 6 Digit Birthdate plus First and Last Initials (Example: 090995kd)
If you have trouble logging in – please see Mrs. Dumbleton in Student Services for help. You
can email at sdumbleton@madison.k12.wi.us or call 204-3664.
Get Prepared for the ACT – Fast and Painless!
All MMSD high school students can now take advantage of a free, on-line ACT prep course
to help them prepare for the ACT - a national college admissions examination that students
5
must take in order to gain admissions to many of our 4-year colleges and universities. All 11th
grade students will be taking the ACT at their high schools in March 2014.
Test prep research suggests that students who spend at least 15 minutes per day for at least 8
weeks can see as much as a three point increase in their ACT score.
Students can access the test prep, by logging into their Career Cruising account, from any
electronic device that has an internet connection. Once in Career Cruising, click on Method
Test Prep. Questions about ACT or ACT test prep? Please contact your school counselor.
Scheduling for the 2014-2015 School Year
With the arrival of the New Year, comes student scheduling and planning for the 2014-2015
school year.
Students and parents should be discussing post-graduation goals. Course selection should be
coordinated to meet the goals you’ve established. Adequate preparation for college requires
a more demanding course load than minimum core curriculum requirements. Students taking
“accelerated” courses typically have a better grasp of what is needed to be well-prepared
for college. Some students believe it is better to get good grades in a class which is less
challenging for them, than a “B” in a more challenging class. Predictors of college success
indicate that if you are challenged in your curriculum you will attain skills that will equate
to successful transition to college level coursework. All students should begin as early as
freshman year to take a “well thought out” series of courses.
Sometimes parents lack experience and/or information concerning college preparation. Your
student’s counselor is a good resource. Two pitfalls for parents to avoid are:
• Allowing their senior to believe that “fluff” classes are the way to go, that three years of
challenging courses are enough or that they’ve earned the right to relax.
• Students pursuing goals of military, general workforce, and technical professions often
times feel that they do not need to take additional academic or higher level classes. The
bottom line is all students benefit from challenge and four years of core classes. Students
that take a solid core curriculum make better employees, advance more quickly in their
field, and earn more money than students who did not.
Scheduling Time Line for the 2014-2015 School Year:
January La Follette counseling staff provides scheduling information and materials to
current 8th grade students at Whitehorse, Sennett, Badger Rock and private
middle schools.
January 14 Current La Follette students (9th-11th) will receive schedule cards and
explanatory handouts during the Lancer Lesson. Curriculum guides will be
available on the La Follette webpage. Students will then enter their course
selections into Career Cruising. Students should enter requests on Career
Cruising in the Course Planner before mid-February.
Additional Scheduling Details:
• Course Planner is available in Career Cruising for student use. Courses can be entered and
submitted from home.
• All course offerings can be located and viewed on the La Follette Infinite Campus website
and in Course Planner in Career Cruising.
• Schedule requests submitted are final requests. Counselors will work with students if there
are scheduling conflicts needing to be resolved.
• Unless there are exceptional circumstances, schedule changes will not be made at registration.
Reminder for students planning on participating in Youth Options in the fall of 2014:
Your application needs to be completed and postmarked by March 1, 2014.

Advanced Placement Program and Exam Schedule 2014
The Advanced Placement Program (AP) is a cooperative educational endeavor between La
Follette High School, Madison College (formerly MATC), colleges and universities. It allows
students to enroll in college-level courses while in high school, and gives them opportunity to
show mastery by taking an AP exam. If a student scores high enough on the exam s/he may
receive credit, advanced placement or both at most colleges or universities. The amount of
credit granted varies on the college, AP score, and the subject. Some colleges grant up to six
college credits for a score of five! Students may also be able to move into a higher level class
at college as a freshman. This not only translates into time saved, but also a financial savings
for each credit earned while in high school. It is possible for a student to take enough AP
exams to enter college at a sophomore standing, and in rare cases, as a junior.
Advanced Placement courses usually offered at La Follette are as follows: Advanced
Placement Chemistry, Statistics, Calculus I, Calculus II, Spanish V, Language and
Composition, French V, United States History, European History, Literature and Composition,
Environmental Science, German V, and Advanced Placement U.S. Government.
AP exams are given over two weeks in May. Students district wide take the same exam at the
same time at the Alliant Energy Center. Each exam consists of two sections. The first section
is made up of multiple-choice questions. The other section consists of free-response questions
in various formats: essays, audiotape responses, analysis of historical documents, etc. There
are fee waivers available for students on free/reduced lunch. Students may elect to take an
exam regardless of whether they took an officially designated class or not.
The Advanced Placement grading scale is as follows: 5 extremely well qualified, 4 well
qualified, 3 qualified, 2 possibly qualified, and 1 no recommendation. Students will receive their
grade report in July. Most colleges accept Advanced Placement scores of three or above.
Information for Students with Disabilities Taking Advanced Placement Exams
If you have a documented disability, you may be eligible for accommodations on the AP
Exams. Some examples include: extended time; Braille; large-type exams; large-block
answer sheets; permission to use a Braille device, computer, or magnifying device; a reader to
dictate questions; a writer to record responses; a written copy of oral instructions; as well as
other accommodations.
Most students apply for accommodations with the assistance of their school. Parents or
guardians must complete a consent form. The school’s SSD Coordinator and case manager/
counselor will then be able to request accommodations online. Parents can request
accommodations without school based assistance by using a Student Eligibility Form (this
form is available on-line at College Board).
In some cases, additional documentation of a disability is required to be submitted for the
College Board’s review. Documentation review is required in all cases where a student is
applying for accommodations directly from the College Board, without the participation of
their school.
To take an AP test with testing accommodations, a student must:
• Have a disability that requires testing accommodation
• Submit a complete request for accommodations, before the stated deadline (February 21)
• If required, submit complete documentation of a disability, describing the need for the
requested accommodation
Please Note: If you have previously been approved by the College Board for testing
accommodations (for example, when you took the AP, PSAT, or SAT), you do not need to submit
a new request. If you transferred schools after being approved for testing accommodations,
notify the SSD Coordinator at your new school of the prior approval. If you need different
accommodations, your school’s SSD Coordinator may submit an Accommodations Change
Form for you.

Financial Aid Night – An Informational Evening for College Bound Seniors and Parents
The annual Financial Aid Night will be held on Wednesday, January 29, 2014 at 6:00 p.m.
in the C-17 lecture hall. A college financial aid administrator will discuss the guidelines for
completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form. Parents/guardians of
seniors, as well as seniors themselves who are planning to apply for financial aid, should plan
to attend. Additionally, this is an opportunity for parents (especially those with complicated
circumstances relating to financial aid) to have their questions answered. Come prepared to ask
for the answers to those questions. You can print off a practice worksheet and also complete
your FAFSA at www.fafsa.ed.gov/. The FAFSA can’t be completed until after January 1st for
students entering college in the fall of 2014.
College Goal Wisconsin – FAFSA Completion Opportunity
College Goal Wisconsin is a nationwide event that assists thousands of high school seniors and
their families to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the essential
first step to receiving financial aid and going to college. This is a free opportunity to actually
receive “one on one” help enabling you to complete the FAFSA application on location.
College Goal Wisconsin will be held on Saturday, February 22nd at Madison College
(formerly MATC) at 2 p.m. and DeForest High School and Edgewood High School at 2
p.m. on Sunday, February 23rd. Please note: You should bring the parent’s, as well as the
student’s (if applicable), completed federal income tax returns for 2013, W-2 statements, and
other 2013 income and/or benefit information. If parents are unable to attend, students may
attend alone and bring this information. A description of this program is available at www.
wicollegegoalsunday.org.
Things You Should Know About Completing Your FAFSA
Filing of the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is done online after January
1st. It is optimum for you to have completed your 2012 taxes before your FAFSA. You can
complete the FAFSA using your 2010 tax information, but you will have to go in again and
add the 2011 tax information before your financial aid package will be finalized. The online
address for filing is: www.fafsa.ed.gov. You can download a web worksheet before filing
online to help you gather the needed information.
Do not use website www.fafsa.com – it is not the correct website! This site files a FAFSA
for a fee. FILING THE FAFSA WITH THE U.S. GOVERNMENT IS FREE. It is directly
interfaced with the colleges. Do not accept a substitute.
If you have a question as you complete your FAFSA form, direct it to the Federal Student
Aid Information Center at 1-800-433-3242. It is a wonderful resource provided by the U.S.
government. Another good resource for questions you may have as you complete your
FAFSA, is to call the financial aid department of the college you will be attending.
It is in your best interest to complete your FAFSA as soon as possible. Completing

Graduation rehearsal is at 12:00 p.m. after a much abbreviated morning schedule, seniors pick up
their cap and gown before reporting to the gymnasium. All seniors participating in the ceremony
must attend this rehearsal, unless an exception is made by Ms. Olsen. All financial obligations must
be totally cleared and paid before seniors leave the gym after rehearsal. Diplomas will be withheld if
these responsibilities are not fulfilled.
Also at 1:00 p.m., will be the taking of the official Class of 2014 Graduation Picture. This is
the formal (cap and gown) class picture that ends up being displayed on the Alumni Wall in the

Graduation Ceremony June 13, 2014
The Graduation Ceremony will be at 7:30 p.m. at the Kohl Center. More detailed information will
be sent in mid-May, which will give graduates, parents and family all the pertinent details relating to
seating, parking and other concerns that you will want to hear about. For now, please note the time,
date and location.
Graduation Etiquette: Graduation is an important formal ceremony for seniors, parents, family
and others. The wearing of a cap and gown is a time-honored tradition from hundreds of years ago.
We anticipate a ceremony that is dignified, appropriate and appreciated by all those in attendance.
Based on the positive experiences with commencement ceremonies in the recent past, the following
guidelines will be in effect again this year.
Graduation Ceremony Dress Code
Participating in the ceremony is optional. Non-participating seniors can pick up their diplomas at
school any time after graduation. Students participating in the Commencement Ceremony must
follow the dress guidelines as outlined below.
MALES: Dress Pants (no jeans, no shorts), socks, dress shoes (no tennis shoes), shirt with collar,
and a tie.
FEMALES: Dress, pant suit or skirt/blouses combination (no jeans, no shorts), dress shoes (no
tennis shoes or flip flops).
Graduation Ceremony Behavior
Anyone who would disrupt the ceremony risks being removed from the Kohl Center. Students who
bring toys, noisemakers, or other disruptive devices risk being excluded from the ceremony.
Graduation Ceremony Photography
Empire Photography will take a picture of each graduate receiving his/her diploma cover.

This is your opportunity to recognize a graduating senior. You can purchase an ad for your senior for the 2013-2014 Statesman
Yearbook. Send it back to La Follette High School as soon as possible…space is limited, first come first served.
Gather photos of your senior from the past and/or present, write an appropriate aspiration to the graduating senior to wish them well in
their future endeavors or past events and send it in to the yearbook staff. If you send photos on a CD, be sure that they are high
resolution photos, in color if possible, and are either a jpg or tif formatted file and the text only can be a MS Word document. Do not
send photos placed in a Word document, we need the jpg or tif file as well. If you create the entire senior ad, you must be sure to
create it at the appropriate size, be sure that it is saved as an eps file or a pdf file so that we can place the ad in Adobe InDesign CS6
software. Be sure it is a high resolution file (500KB or larger) so that it is not pixilated or have “jaggy” edges. If you include a quote,
please identify the author, otherwise the staff reserves the right to exclude any plagiarized text/content.
