As of last Sunday, April 19th at 2:00 am, Morocco switched to daylight savings time.  Clocks, phones and electronic devices automatically move backward one hour. In this regard, and to accommodate our Muslim community who observe the month of Ramadan, this year only Elearning will start on the first day of Ramadan at 9:00 am instead of 8:00 am. We take this opportunity to wish our Muslim Community a ramadan Moubarak Said. Ramadan will most likely start either on Friday, April 24th or Saturday, April 25th. With this Covid 19, our habits have changed and will so more during this holy month. As a community of wonderful parents, dedicated faculty and engaged students, we will overcome these obstacles and work hand in hand to make sure students get the education they need. Your suggestions are mostly welcome and please reach out to us for any assistance we might be able to help with. 

We sincerely thank everyone who have exhibited compassion and magnanimity towards our Support Staff.   For our annual Ramadan Food Drive, we will soon communicate to everyone the bank account number for your donations. 

As some of you have also expressed their desire to show appreciation towards our dedicated teaching staff, please reach out to our Communication and Marketing Manager Ms. Fatiha Sajid at : fsajid@cas.ac.ma or my administrative assistant, Ms. Halima Mounbahij at: hsarhane@cas.ac.ma for coordination. 

Thank you

Dear Juniors,

First, I would like to congratulate you on finishing our 7 College Preparatory Workshops! Since December, we have worked together on completing your university application folder. This week, we have talked about the College Essay and I gave you guidance on how to write it. While we are done with our workshops, you still have work to do to prepare your university applications! The completed folder is due no later than June 15, 2020. 

Please click on this document to review the list of tasks you have to complete by then. I have added these tasks and deadlines on ManageBac as well as on BridgeU. Each time you complete a task, I will mark it as done on BridgeU. This should help you stay on track.

I added many useful resources on Schoology that will help you finish your tasks. Please take a look at these resources and make use of them.

In the meanwhile, please remember that College Counseling is Teamwork! And while it is your responsibility to finish all your tasks, it is mine to assist you in this process. Therefore, please reach out to me to schedule individual appointments. My office hours are Monday through Friday, from 3 pm to 6 pm. We would meet virtually on Google Meet.
