Some of our students participated in the Taste of the Trade on December 3rd. They were able to go behind the scenes with leading culinary professionals from our community and hear firsthand as they discussed their unique roles, expertise, and revealed the passion that fuels their work.
Special thanks to Lisa Kelley, Owner of Real Food Studio, Kelly Davin, Owner of Kneaded Baking, and Kelley Sidorowicz, Owner of The Beanery.
School Links is the platform SMCPS is using to send all documents to colleges. Students are able to match their account with the Common App and request their teacher recommendation letters. Students will login to SchooLinks through Clever.
The Common Application, which is accepted by more than 900 schools, including some colleges located outside the U.S., helps streamline an essential part of the admissions process for students.
Through the platform, first-time and transfer applicants alike can apply to multiple colleges at once. So students only have to fill out details that most schools require, including name, address and extracurricular activities, one time. *Make sure to create an account using a personal email, not your school email.*
