ECO-St. Lo
|  Here is your green tip of the week from ECO-St. Lo, our local environment group ECO-St. Lo wants to take action both locally and in the larger community. One way to do so is to write letters to officials about environmental issues that disturb us. A letter writing campaign can be extremely effective for both spreading the word about a cause and getting things done. If letters are printed in the newspaper, people who had no information about the issue can learn more. If we send a letter to a local elected official, and convince others to do the same, he or she may actually take action. It may be surprising, but most elected officials really do take the time to read the letters that they get from their constituents. They want to know what we think - and a handwritten letter can show that we care. They are also aware that one letter reflects the views of about 500 constituents who don't take the time to write! So join our ECO-St. Lo letter writing campaigns. Just contact Bob McBryde at rmcbryde@slc.qc.ca Or send Bob a MIO! He will put you on our letter writing campaign mailing list At St Lawrence, it's easy being green! |

DO YOU NEED TO TAKE THE SAT?
|  Students planning to go study in the States are generally required to complete SAT testing. The test is administered by the College Board. Canadian students are considered to be international students, and therefore, must register at the latest November 8, 2011 for the December 3 test date. We strongly encourage you to apply by the October 25 (early registration deadline) if you are sure of taking the test. Students planning to take both the SAT and SAT Subject tests must do so on two separate testing days. St. Lawrence is an authorized testing center. Students wishing to take the SAT can register for the December 3 or January 28 test dates. Although St. Lawrence is an authorized testing center, you must register online at http://sat.collegeboard.org and pay your testing fees to the College Board. Study materials are available at your library. You may also use free online practice tools or order additional practice material. The registration booklets, as well as the preparation booklets, are available in the Counselling Office, room 254. Our test center code is 97261 (if you don't find our name on the list, you may also search by code).
