6. Students who will not be returning to St. Joseph S.S. next year must also go on-line and select the code that reflects their post-secondary destination.  Print the Student course Request Verification Form and bring it in to your homeroom teacher between January 10^th – 12^th, 2012.  Submit this form to your homeroom teacher by January 12, 2012, in order to be eligible for the “free civvies day” and to receive your updated semester two timetable in February.

7. There will be a “free civvies day” on Thursday, January 12th, 2012, for all those students who have submitted their completed Student Course Request Verification Form and activity fee by that date.
