Apply to Community College with Ms. Aldrete

January 27, 2022 by Monique Aldrete

Hello DVC Seniors and Parents,

I have blocked off all of next week to help seniors apply to community college. Seniors, please make an appointment with me for next week using this link. If you applied to 4-year universities and still want assistance with applying to community colleges, you can also make an appointment.

Students will also need to know their SSN to apply so please ensure that your son/daughter has this information before their appointment. If your son/daughter does not have a SSN, they can still apply.

 

Please reach out for any questions/concerns: maldrete@davincischools.org.

Disability Leadership and Scholarship Program

January 26, 2022 by Monique Aldrete

We are excited to announce a new partnership between RIT and Microsoft, the Disability Leadership and Scholarship Program. This program aims to recruit 10 students who self-identify as members of the Disabled, Deaf Plus, d/Deaf, or hard of hearing community, and who demonstrate strong leadership skills and commitment to equity and justice for the Disability community. Due to requests for more time, we’re extending the deadline to apply for the scholarship to March 1, 2022. 

We need your help to make students at Da Vinci Communications HS aware of this opportunity. Students should be a good match for RIT academically and should be particularly invested in disability, equity, and social justice.

Benefits of the Program

  • A one-time $10,000 scholarship to be used towards costs of RIT education
  • Pre-orientation resource education ensuring students know their rights, resources, and supports on the RIT campus
  • A dedicated RIT faculty/staff mentor and established peer community
  • Ongoing professional and leadership development opportunities


Who is Eligible?


Current high school seniors who are applying to RIT for Fall 2022 and self-identify as Disabled, Deaf Plus, d/Deaf, or hard of hearing are eligible to apply.

We understand disability as broad and as manifesting in a multitude of ways, whether lifelong or acquired, hidden or readily apparent. Those who identify with physical disability, learning disability, mental health disability, chronic illness, Deaf/Disabled identity, and more are within the scope of this initiative. Of particular importance to us is a student’s understanding of Disability as an identity and not a deficit.


Application Process


Please share this self-nomination form with any current high school senior that you think would be a good candidate for this new scholarship and leadership opportunity. Nominations should come directly from the interested student and are due by March 1, 2022.
