New Year, New Beginnings!

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great holiday break and I wish everyone a happy new year! Today is only January 5th, but 2010 has already become very eventful at Union Catholic. The Scholarship Exam for the Class of 2014 is this Saturday, January 9, 2010 at 9:00 AM. I encourage everyone to attend, I was fortunate enough to receive a scholarship from the exam when I was applying. This month, all students in the school will be taking Mid-Term Exams to be tested on all material that we have learned in the first half of the school year. Having 4 AP classes and 2 Accelerated classes makes exam time especially strenous, but nothing to worry or stress over. Exams are from January 18-22, and then I am taking the SAT on the 23rd. That will probably be the hardest academic week of the year for me. Did I mention that the 23rd is also my 17th birthday? I would have liked to have gone on the UC Ski Trip again that weekend, but I decided not to go because I would prefer to spend my birthday with family and friends. The Ski Trip is in Vermont and involves skiing, snowboarding, tubing, swimming and a lot more. I'm sure that those who are attending this year are going to have a great time. After these crazy next few weeks is Catholic Schools Week, which is a great experience to look forward to. I'll keep you updated on every exciting happening, stay tuned!
