From September 16 to September 22, it's  Sustainable Transportation Week! Leaving your car at home and using an active or shared means of transportation will save you money and time and is healthier for you and better for the environment. Why not take the plunge?   

 

If you're feeling hesitant about giving up your car permanently, relax...  You could try it out for just one day on Car Free Day, this Thursday, September 22. Yes, Thursday, public transportation is FREE for all those who register online at www.jembarque.org.

 

Apart from the bus, you can also ride your bike, walk, rollerblade, or skateboard to school! You will get a chance to see how much fun and how sress free these means of transportation really are!

 

If you are a car-lover, share your love with fellow students or staff members.

 

Here at St. Lawrence, people who use sustainable transportation will be rewarded. Prizes will be given to people who fill out a quick survey at the cafeteria on Thursday at lunch time.

 

Brought to you by ECO-St. Lo, your local environment group.

 

AT St. Lawrence, it's easy being green! 

 

 

DO YOU NEED TO TAKE THE SAT?
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). If you have any questions about the registration process, you may contact Nicole Anne Daigle, Guidance Counsellor.
