12th Grade Guidance
Senior Counselor - Kay White
As the parent or guardian of a Ruston High School senior, you are keenly aware of what a busy time this is in your child’s life. In an effort to keep you informed about upcoming events and important dates, I will periodically contact you through newsletters. While I hope these letters will be helpful, please feel free to contact me at 255-0807 or kwhite2@lincolnschools.org if you need additional information or have questions. Graduation is scheduled for May 19, 2020 at the Louisiana Tech Thomas Assembly Center. Please mark your calendars. It will be here before we know it!

It's not time to forget what's important. Use your senior year to apply to colleges and improve your ACT score. Don't get sloppy when you're at the finish line.
