Tony Tuesday response Download
I just HAD to write the summary. This show is bananas.
Xanadu follows the journey of Greek goddess, Kira, as she descends from Mount Olympus to Venice Beach, California, in 1980. She’s on a quest to help the struggling artist, Sonny, succeed in the creation of the “greatest piece of artistry of all time”- the first ROLLER DISCO!

The deadline to apply is March 16th at 4PM. I have some exciting news to share with you about changes to the scholarship this year. Some big changes include NO GPA requirement to apply, no letters of recommendation are required and no formal essay is required, however students will be asked to complete two free response essay questions with a 200 word minimum.
1. Describe how financial need has impacted you, and how receiving this scholarship would contribute to your educational plans.
2. Please share an experience (positive, negative, or otherwise) while attending Fresno Unified School District that has influenced your future goals and aspirations.
CCR in collaboration with the FUSD foundation and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion department have made changes and revised the rubric for scoring in hopes that we will have a more diverse applicant pool and more winners with a variety of experiences to share. Our district will be awarding 400,000 this year for selected winners, compared to 300,000 last year. This includes three 10,000 amazon scholarships and an additional three scholarships specifically for top students that demonstrate a focus on STEM, Trade or other general interest major. The minimum award will be 1,000. Please encourage Senior students to apply. This is a fantastic opportunity for students to earn money for college.
