TAKS Testing
April 25-29, 2011
Look for Testing Schedule in the next Bylines
2010 -2011 Advanced Placement Information
Brook students will soon have an opportunity to earn college credits by taking Advanced Placement exams. The AP tests will be given
during the weeks of May 2 – May 13, 2011. The cost is $57 per test, but students who receive free/reduced lunch may receive a fee waiver
that covers all but $9 of the exam fee. AP tests are scored on a scale of 1 - 5, with scores of 3 or higher usually earning three hours of col-
lege credit. A score of a 3 or higher also counts as one measure towards the Distinguished Achievement Plan for graduation. Advanced
Placement exams will be administered at Clear Brook in either the New Gym or the library, depending upon the size of the testing group.
The schedule for Advanced Placement testing is as follows:
AM PM
Advanced Placement exams help students: gain an edge in college preparation; cut costs of college expenses; stand out in the college ap-
plication process, and broaden intellectual horizons!
Students who wish to take Advanced Placement exams should pick up a registration packet from any AP teacher or the Counseling Cen-
ter, and return it with check or money order to the Counseling Center by March 25, 2011.
*May 6th is the deadline to submit the digital portfolio sections to the AP Program, but all work must be completed prior to the submis-
sion deadline.

What does the 2012 Booster Club Do? Raises Money to provide an alterna-
tive to party hopping on the night of Graduation in a drug free, alcohol free atmos-phere!
Why should you get involved NOW since your child doesn’t Graduate for another 2 YEARS? During their sophomore year we raised $9,000, but we
need at least $35,000-$40,000 to pull off a successful Project Grad! Class of 2009 was fortunate enough to give away $38,000 worth of prizes to the graduating seniors as well as support the event at Main Event.
What Can YOU do to HELP?
JOIN The Booster Club TODAY! GET INVOLVED! See if your Company gives back to the Community
For Example: If you or your spouse work for BP then “Fabric of Amer-ica” will donate $500 a year to our Booster Club…you just have to fill out the Paperwork. (Make sure it is assigned to CBHS Class of 2012 Booster Club – Class of 2009 received over $6000 from BP… WOW!!!)
Meeting Dates: 4/18/2011 (All Meetings are in the Commons at 7:00pm) Baked Potato Lunch Sale: Coming Soon

The School of Business and Applied Technology love to
celebrate our students. Every month the School of Busi-
ness and Applied Technology chooses a magnificent
student as our student of the month and a dedicated
teacher as teacher of the month.
Our selection for the month of February is Kelly Zetka.
Kelly was chosen by several teachers. She is a very in-
telligent young lady who knows her own mind. She is
well read, determined, and thoughtful.
The February teacher of the month is Ms. Heather Mees.
Ms. Mees was nominated because she makes his class
both educational and entertaining. Her students enjoy
coming to her class and look forward to what they will
learn next.
Be sure to congratulate Kelly Zetka and Ms. Mees when
you see them. They truly deserve it!
