Central proud!

SOPHOMORES: Did you know that across the state of California only 37% of English Language Learners pass
CAHSEE- English the first time they take it? If you want to make sure that you are a student who passes the exit
exam, why not try the personal tutoring that is available every Saturday morning from 8:00 A.M. to noon in Room E-
4. No appointment is necessary. Join other students who are working to make sure that first CAHSEE they take is the
LAST CAHSEE they will ever take! Questions? See Mr. Balcom.

fee waiver. If you qualify for a fee waiver, exams cost $5 each. See Vero in ASB to see if you qualify for the fee waiver.
It seems like these tests are expensive, but if you take into consideration how these tests could exempt you from taking
college courses (which could cost several hundred dollars per course at the university level), you’re actually getting a
great deal! Study hard and get your exams paid for in the ASB Office. Deadline to order any exams is 3 PM on
Wednesday, March 18th. Go Spartans!
