Did you Hear? – Mustang University 2013-14 held its first “class” for parents this year on October 2nd. Our Counseling department started off this years informational nights with “Senior College Night”. Over 100 parents attended the presentation on applying to CSU’s, UC’s and private colleges. Scattergrams were provided for parents to see the admission statistics for last years graduating class. Scattergrams indicate students’ college acceptance with SAT scores and GPA’s. This is the first of nine Mustang University “classes” presented by our YLHS counselors and sponsored by our YLHS PTSA. Future classes include:
