School Counseling Corner Final Transcripts Final transcripts - we will send out final transcripts to colleges once they have been completed. Hopefully all will be sent by June 15, 2020. If you have changed your mind (since completing the senior survey) about which school you wish to attend, please contact Mrs. Grosh or Miss Grasa.

Senior Dual Enrollment Seniors who have taken dual enrollment courses from HACC or Millersville - you will need to order official transcripts from these schools and have them sent to your college if you wish to receive credit. Please do this as soon as possible.

Grade Point Averages If you look at your quarter gpa as only one slice of your cumulative GPA, it will probably make more sense. Right now, your quarter GPA is 1/4, 1/8, 1/12 or 1/16 of your cumulative GPA--depending on how many quarters you have been at LCHS (each year is 4 quarters).

Your cumulative GPA would account for all 4, 8,12 or 16 quarters and might be slightly higher or lower than your quarter GPA depending on how you performed. Your class rank is also affected each quarter and cumulatively; for instance, a student may have performed so well in one quarter that they are number 1 in their class, however, their class rank overall may be number 12. Hopefully this explains our grade point average. For more information, please see the page 9 of the Course Catalog Seniors!!

There’s still time! The Lancaster Sunrise Rotary was in touch this week and they will continue to offer the Culliton Scholarships! These are $2,000 and three students will receive them. You must be a good student, accepted to college for fall, 2020 and demonstrate financial need. Please download the application from Naviance and send to Mrs. Grosh when complete no later than June 15, 2020. From there, the Rotary will select winners and they will be announced at graduation in July.
