AFL-CIO SCHOLARSHIP EXAM

Every year we have students participate in the AFL-CIO Scholarship Exam which is about Labor History in the US. You do not need to have a family member affiliated with a union in order to take the exam, ALL HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS ARE ELIGIBLE . A senior received this award last year and got $10,000! The exam will take place in February at the high school, but you need to register by December 20, 2024 in order to participate. If you are interested, please register here: https://airtable.com/appODS28XFxORl5CG/shrNdYQo339szbywo

If you have any questions, please see your Guidance Counselor.
