College Fair

Attention Paschal Juniors & Seniors!
 
Paschal's Annual College Fair will be Tuesday, November 5
9:00-11:00 in the PHS cafeteria
 
Colleges are now importing student data electronically - no more info cards to fill out!  This process requires that you first go to 
www.gotocollegefairs.com to register your information online.  Once registered, you will be provided a bar code to print and bring with you to the fair so that schools can scan your contact information directly into their database.  Again, this must be completed PRIOR TO attending the College Fair.  For more information please visit the website or contact your counselor.
