WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH
EID AL-FITR CELEBRATION
This year, the Islamic holy month of Ramadan runs from March 10 to April 9. For Muslims around the world, Ramadan is a time of fasting, prayer, reflection and community. During this fast, Muslims who are able do not eat or drink during daylight hours. While younger children are not required to fast, many will fast for all or part of the day.
Ramadan culminates with a holiday called, Eid al-Fitr. This celebration can involve praying, visiting friends and relatives, exchanging gifts, sharing food, remembering deceased loved ones and helping those experiencing poverty. While students will be in attendance during Ramadan, it is likely that most will be absent in observance of Eid-al-Fitr.

COUNSELING DEPARTMENT
If you need to reach out to your student’s counselor, please see below for contact information.
(International Exchange Students are supported by counselors via alpha arrangement)
2024-2025 Course Scheduling
Scheduling for next school is underway. Counselors have met with all grade levels in large groups to explain the options and the process. Additionally, counselors have held individual meetings with 9th and 10th grade students. Current juniors will have individual meetings with their counselors during the week of March 11.
SENIORS: Transcript & College App. Info.
Colleges may ask for mid-year grades from your senior. In order to request an updated transcript, please have your student log in to Parchment (www.parchment.com) and send the transcript to the requesting college(s) using the “Order” option. 1st semester grades have been posted, so choose the “Send Now” option.
Information for seniors regarding college applications, transcripts, Common App., and more is found on the AHS Class of 2024 Google Classroom and the Senior Weebly.
SENIORS: Scholarships
Now is the time for seniors to be applying for college scholarships. Here are some resources:
- The “Scholarship” button on the Adams Counseling web page HERE
- Seniors should review ALL scholarship opportunities at the colleges where they’re applying.
- There are various, helpful scholarship search engines such as www.fastweb.com .
JUNIORS: PSAT Scores
PSAT scores are available to juniors via their CollegeBoard accounts. Students need to log into (or create) their CollegeBoard accounts in order to view their scores. Counselors do not have access to log into students’ CollegeBoard accounts for them. If students are having difficulty logging into their accounts, they can call CollegeBoard at 866-433-7728 or email them here: [email protected] . For more information, check our Weebly here: https://adamspsat11.weebly.com/
SOPHOMORES & JUNIORS: OSTC
On Nov. 8th, Randy Maddock, the OSTC counselor, spoke to all sophomores about the programs available at OSTC. Students were given information to take home, and there is information posted on their Google Classrooms. For more information, please see the attached fliers about information nights. Also, the online application for the 24-25 school year is open here: www.OSTConline.com. Some programs fill up very quickly, so don’t delay applying.
FAFSA/Financial Aid Info.
- The new FAFSA form is available HERE. Changes have been made to the FAFSA for the 2024-2025 school year that will affect many of our students. If you missed the presentation from Oakland University on 11/27, here’s the link to the information presented: https://www.oakland.edu/financialservices/understanding-financial-assistance/events/
- Students and parents are welcome to contact the Financial Aid Office of any college/university with questions.
- Regarding the Free/Reduced Lunch question on FAFSA: Students should not select that they qualify for free/reduced lunch solely because they received free lunch in 2023. (Lunches have been free for all MI students this school year.) The FAFSA qualification is based on the family's income and eligibility criteria. Students should select the appropriate option based on their family's income eligibility. For detailed guidance on each question on FAFSA, see the FAFSA Official Website.
Counselors met with all grades for career exploration and state-required EDP completion. We also shared pertinent information with students regarding upcoming dates, tips for high school enjoyment and success, and more. Your student’s Xello account is available for them to continue career/college/training exploration anytime they’d like.
Work Permits
- You can obtain a work permit in the counseling office as well as in the vestibule outside of the main office.
- Make sure to choose the appropriate form (there is a form for UNDER 16 and a separate form for 16 & 17 years old).
- Complete Section I, have your employer complete Section II, then bring it back to AHS to be completed. If a parent is bringing the form for their student, we will need a photo ID of the student in order to complete the work permit.
- Work permits are completed between the hours of 7:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. Monday-Friday.
