Powers -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- January 8, 2013 Dear Parents and Students: Soon, students will be selecting courses for the 2013-2014 school year. Before you know it, you’ll be thinking about colleges…. or maybe you already are! Did you know that Floral Park Memorial’s Business Department offers students who are collegebound an opportunity to earn up to 21 college credits, through the Accelerated College Entry (ACE) Program with Long Island University- C.W. Post Campus? These college credits may be transferred to other colleges and universities as well. While you are advised to contact a particular college regarding the applicability of the transfer credit, our experience with colleges in general and local colleges in particular has been great! Considering the cost of college tuition today, the ACE Program provides the opportunity to obtain college credits from an accredited university at a reduced cost. Floral Park Memorial’s Business Department offers excellent opportunities for students to enhance their computer skills, earn college credits, explore careers, gain insight on real-world experiences, and learn how to manage money so they can become self-sufficient in the future. More information about our courses plus other key points about our program offerings are outlined on the reverse side of this letter. I hope that you will find this information helpful when your son or daughter completes his or her course requests for next year. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (516) 488-9322 or email me at sscolieri@sewanhaka.k12.ny.us or have your son/daughter contact me in the Business Department to learn more about this excellent opportunity.
