Good Morning,
ASVAB testing will be taking place Wednesday, October 20th in the high school cafeteria from approximately 8:30 - 11:30AM for ALL SOPHOMORES. Interested juniors and seniors can sign-up by notifying the guidance office of their intentions to test. Students do not need to bring any testing materials with them on their scheduled test day.
Although the ASVAB is used for military entry and job placement for students interested in enlisting, for younger students, the ASVAB is used as a career exploration tool that combines a student's interests with his or her skills and abilities. The ASVAB is one of the best indicators of the appropriateness of a career match because it incorporates the student's ability/skill in the career match calculation. I also includes areas not typically measured on a school assessment such as "Mechanical Comprehension."
For more information on the ASVAB's career assessment and career exploration program, please visit: ASVAB Testing Information.
We DO NOT release sophomore ASVAB scores to military recruiters and the ASVAB testing center is not permitted to do so; however, if you do not wish for your sophomore child to test, please email or write a note asking that your child be exempt from ASVAB testing for this school year.
The ASVAB score can be helpful to students to ensure they are maximizing their options to meet at least one of the required Graduation Pathway Requirements as outlined by the Pennsylvania Department of Education: Pathways Document.This assessment is one of the primary ways many of our students will be able to do so.
If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Shannon Miller
School Counselor

Good evening, this is Scott Webster calling from the Northeast Bradford Elementary School reminding parents that a technology survey was sent home with your child today. We ask that you please fill out the survey indicating if your child has access to technology at home or if they will need to borrow an I-pad from the school. This is a proactive survey in case we need to pivot to a remote model for a short time. Please complete the questionnaire and have your child return it to school tomorrow morning. There is a link to this survey on our webpage if you do not receive one. Thank you.
PSAT testing October 13, 2021. This is intended for all 11th graders (free) and 10th graders ($17) to help prepare for the SAT. Pick up a form in the HS Guidance office.

Junior Class Fundraiser:
We wanted to give an update on our situation this morning. We were advised of a possible threat to the school. Given that information, we worked with the state police to ensure the safety of all students. The state police sent an officer to the district in the morning while we
were investigating. I want to assure you that at no time were students or staff in any danger. I also want to clear up some rumors and misinformation that are circulating on social media. As a
District we take rumors and threats seriously, however, at no time was a firearm in the possession of a student in our buildings. We will continue to monitor the situation and we want
to thank you for your support.
