[Adviser Takeover]
[Picture of college acceptance board]
To conclude my adviser takeover I just want to highlight the hard work of the seniors at JF Webb. Our Webb Warriors have worked diligently over these past few months submitting college applications and have received numerous acceptances from colleges in and out of state. The JF Webb College Acceptance Board is one of the ways we celebrate their accomplishments!
[Picture from Oct. FAFSA night] Shout out to the Webb admin team for their support during this year. And a special shout out to my onsite, Mr. Small (not pictured) who continuously supports Webb students in their education and post secondary plans.
Greetings! My name is Carman Autry and I am a first year adviser serving at JF Webb High School in Granville County. It has been an enriching learning experience as a new adviser and working with students as they explore and pursue their journey beyond high school. I will be sharing some of the events we have had over this academic year!
