Reminders

 

Attention Freshmen Parents

Freshmen received information in homeroom on Tuesday, Feb. 15 regarding CJ's computer skills requirement. Students have two choices to complete this requirement:  

  • One choice is to take the semester-long Computer Topics class (usually taken during sophomore year).  
  • The second choice is to try to test-out of the class by passing four computer skills tests. The tests cover skills in Keyboarding, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The test-out option is only available to students during their freshman year.

More information on this program, including online training options for students and test dates, may be found on the Business and Technology Department's Web page.
