We all recognize that high academic achievers come from all different economic backgrounds, and it is our experience that students can be deterred to apply due to the cost factor. Therefore I would like to make sure that you are aware and to convey to your students that no student, if offered a place in the program, will ever be turned away due to cost, in cases where financial need is clearly demonstrated. And to support this effort we have made available a number of full scholarships, bursaries, and travel bursaries to support this initiative.
Important information:
· Our final intake date for applications is Wednesday, January 19, 2011 · Please ensure your students know about our bursaries and financial awards. For 2011, $300,000 is budgeted for financial/travel assistance
· There is no cost to apply to Shad Valley
· Completing the application is a great experience for future university applications

Plastic bags are disastrous for the environment in so many different ways.Some countries, including Italy, have actually banned their sale and use. A number of North American cities are following suit.Here is a fascinating link about plastic bags and our obvious alternatives:
