Mrs. Maslowsky

We know we're a few days late on this, but we've FINALLY posted the 5 Finalists for our Best Website contest on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TeacherWebInc. You have from now until midnight next Wednesday, May 22nd, to vote on your favorite. The winner will receive a free year of TeacherWeb, and the 4 runners-up will get $15 Starbucks giftcards, so vote wisely! The Finalists' websites are posted in their own photo album on our Facebook page, so check those out first, visit the sites, click around, then come back and vote via our poll.

Thanks for your participation - we were amazed by all the entries and fantastic websites that we got to review, and if you didn't end up in the Top 5, know that it's because there are so many stellar educators out there using our products to reach their students and families that it was almost impossible for us to choose.

Thanks again,
The folks at TeacherWeb

DO YOU HAVE GOOD GRADES (2.5 non-weighted GPA or higher)?

DO YOU COME TO SCHOOL REGULARLY (95% attendance or better)?

DO YOU WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE AND HAVE HELP PAYING THE BILL?

Achieving A+ eligibility means that you may be eligible for paid tuition and
general fees toward your first associate degree at any public community
college or technical school in the state of Missouri (provided state funds
are appropriated by the legislature and annual funding is approved). The
money is available for student use within the 4-year period immediately after 
high school
graduation.

The A+ Program is for everyone! You can:

* attend a 1- or 2-year community college or technical school and get
a degree that will prepare you for a high-wage, high-skill job in
over 150 career areas. Starting wages for these types of jobs
usually range from $9-$25/hour.

* get an Associate of Arts degree at a community college that will
allow you to transfer to a 4-year college as a junior. Most four-year
universities work with A+ students in the transfer and scholarship process.

* obtain incentive scholarships at participating four-year colleges.
Truman State University, Columbia College, Webster University, William
Woods University, SMSU--West Plains, MO Western, NW Missouri State, and
Lincoln University are a few who offer A+ competitive scholarships and/or
dual enrollment with area technical centers and community colleges. Contact
the university directly for details on how A+ eligibility can help.

TO QUALIFY, STUDENTS SIMPLY MEET EACH OF THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA:

* sign an A+ Schools Agreement, A+ Citizenship Guideline, and A+ Attendance
Policy

* attend an A+ designated School for the last three consecutive years prior
to graduation.

* keep a 4-year cumulative attendance record of 95% or better.

* keep a 4-year cumulative, non-weighted GPA of 2.5 or higher.

* complete 50 hours of unpaid, academic tutoring. Tutor hours may be logged
only after the student has completed training and ONLY when prior arrangements
have been made and permission obtained from Mrs. Maslowsky, A+ Coordinator.

* maintain good citizenship and avoid the use of alcohol and/or drugs.
Referrals, tardies, in-school, and out-of-school suspensions may
have an impact on your eligibility.

* file the FAFSA early in the last semester of your senior year.

* show proof of registration, if required to register, under the U.S.
Military Selective Service Act.

* Beginning with the senior Class of 2015, A+ qualifiers must have achieved a
score of proficient or advanced on the Algebra I end of course exam. If the
student doesn't meet this criteria (but meets all others), A+ eligibility 
will be determined by current MDHE guidelines.

*A+ is a state-funded program. Money available to students is dependent on
state fund allocations which may change from year to year.

POSTGRADUATE RESPONSIBILITIES:

If a student is a non-citizen, it is up to the post-secondary institution to
determine whether or not they are eligible for the incentives for the A+
program.

To retain A+ incentives in college, the student must attend college on a
full-time basis, maintain a college GPA of 2.5 or higher, and re-apply for
the FAFSA during subsequent semesters.
