October was packed with many Cornerstone experiences, especially those focusing on the college application process. With the support of Mr. Paterno, our Dean of Students and School Counselor, our Seniors have been working on several activities associated with the college application process. They are completing their college applications to meet deadlines, some using the common applications, requesting recommendation letters from their teachers, and writing their college essays. Some students had a November 1st deadline and diligently worked to meet it.
In addition, some seniors took the October SATs, and some 10th and 11th-grade students recently took the PSATs at Cornerstone.
On a separate topic, keeping in line with social-political events, Cornerstone students participated in an election to seat the student council for this school year. Students engaged in campaigns with election posters and speeches encouraging their peers to vote for them. After a day of voting, our new Student Council representatives have now officially taken office.
