Parents does your student have the gift of
being able to eat lunch with students who
need someone to come alongside them and
be a friend? Do they have a study hall once a
week that they would give up to help a peer with their
homework? Does your student like to attend events
outside of the school day that they could bring a student in
the inclusion program along with them?

Students are responsible for the textbooks assigned to
them in each class. If students lose or
damage a book, they will be charged for a
replacement.
If so, please encourage your student to sign up for

questions, please contact Ms. Krista DeVries at
kdevries@gccsmi.org

of our children. If you are interested in

COUNSELOR ASSIGNMENTS
For administrative purposes, the school
population is divided among the two counselors.

choice. Mr. Hekman generally has last names A-K and
Mrs. Swanson has last names L-Z.

NOTICE TO PARENTS OF JUNIORS
The 2016 Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/ National
Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) will be
offered at Calvin Christian High School on Wednesday,
October 19. The test fee is $15.00.
The test provides a practice experience for college
entrance exams, as well as entering the student in the
nationwide scholarship contest conducted by the National
Merit Scholarship Corporation. The test covers verbal,
mathematical, and writing abilities. The PSAT/NMSQT
tests a student’s ability to reason with facts and concepts
rather than to recall or recite them. Students are not
asked to answer questions about grammar, recall facts
from literature, or recognize mathematical formulas.
Instead, they are given verbal and mathematical
information and asked to reason with it. The test will be
explained by the counselors in one of the student’s
classes. Students will also receive a student bulletin that
explains the test in greater detail and contains a sample
test for each section of the PSAT. There is also a section
in the bulletin that explains the available scholarships.
The total test time is 2 hours, 45 minutes.
Note: For more information on the PSAT/NMSQT go to
www.collegeboard.com/PSAT

accepted by colleges nationwide for
admittance and scholarship
consideration. Testing dates for this

NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT
On January 8, 2002, President Bush signed into
law the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 as part of
the Elementary and Secondary Education Act
(ESEA) since ESEA was enacted in 1965. It
redefines the federal role in K-12 education.
Section 9528 of the ESEA requires each school
that receives funds (such as professional
development funds) under the ESEA to provide, on
request by a military recruiter or an institution of
higher education, access to the names, addresses,
and telephone listings of secondary students.
However, parents may request that such information
NOT be released for their child without prior written
parental consent.
Therefore, if you as a parent wish that your child’s
information NOT be released, contact the high school
office in order to complete a form indicating your
preference.
