Welcome to New Tech Academy
LATE BUS STATUS
FWCS high school seniors are invited to attend the Apply & Admit College Go Night from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 13, at the FWCS Family and Community Engagement Center, 230 E. Douglas Ave. Seniors will be able to speak with college reps, apply in-person and be admitted on-the-spot! Representatives from Indiana Tech, Ivy Tech, Purdue Fort Wayne and the University of Saint Francis will be in attendance. There will also be opportunities to earn scholarships and get help completing the FAFSA. Students should bring a copy of their high school transcripts.
Students at New Tech Academy at Wayne will hear from 12 women from the Middle East representing Christian Arabs, Muslim Arabs and Jews, who will speak about diversity and hardship. The Jewish Federation and WOW sponsored the Partnership2Gether event to allow the women to share their living example of shattering barriers and stereotypes. The women will use the co-existence of Arab and Israeli women and communities as a real-world example of how communities from diverse settings can exist together. The women will express why it is important to talk, and more importantly, to listen when working towards change. New Tech Academy students will have the opportunity to listen and ask questions of the panel in a one-hour workshop at 11 a.m.
