The Foundation funds a series of classes designed to help students prepare for the career or college of their choice. The classes include:
ACT Blitz. Offered in the spring of each year at both Anderson HS and Turpin HS, this class reviews strategies for taking the ACT test. Parents of sophomores and juniors will receive an email a month before the test with registration information. Please email info@fhfe.org for more information.
PSAT Practice Test (TBD for 2019) Every fall, FHFE offers a full length PSAT practice test for all interested juniors and sophomores. The test is given at Nagel Middle School under conditions similar to the actual PSAT. Students are given the answers to take home with them to score the test themselves. Parents of sophomores and juniors will receive an email a month before the test with registration information.
Interviewing Skills Class. Students learn about resume writing and interviewing via an online class and then have the opportunity to be take part in practice interviews with local business people. The date for the 2019 Interviewing Skills Class is Sunday, January 27th from 1 to 3pm at Nagel Middle School. To register an Anderson HS or Turpin HS junior or senior, click here.
College Essay Writing Workshop. FHFE and Riverbend Education Solutions, LLC are providing an opportunity for rising high school seniors to attend a four-hour workshop devoted to brainstorming essay topics and developing relevant essay structure. The goal of the workshop is for each student to leave with either a solid outline or first draft of a main personal statement and have the tools to develop more. The 2019 workshop will be held on June 6th at Nagel. Current Anderson HS and Turpin HS juniors can register here.
