Pick up an application in Student Services North and bring it to a Peer Tutoring session. Why stay frustrated? Join today. For questions, email hackettn@mdusd.org.

Students, please plan ahead: Students choosing to take classes for enrichment or credit during the summer at Diablo Valley College, Los Medanos or De Anza need to make sure they have spoken to their school administrator and have a district concurrent enrollment form approved by their school administrator prior to June 14, 2012. Forms are available in the school office. Dont risk foregoing a course this summer because you did not get your form approved in time. The last day an administrator will be available to approve your concurrent enrollment is June 14, 2012. **************************************************************************************** ******** FOR TEACHERS ONLY: The new web store is up and running. Parents are now able to see exactly what they have paid to CP for their students. It is imperative that all money a student pays to you is run

through me. For those of you who collect lab donations, please advise your students that the new web store is: https://intouch.mdusd.org.
