Students at Warren Township High School are now four weeks into the academic year, according to a recent update from Mrs. McGahan, Post-Secondary Counselor. The message highlights that students are adjusting to their classes and balancing extracurricular activities with coursework.

Mrs. McGahan encourages students to stay current on assignments, prepare for assessments, and seek help from teachers, after-school study tables, or counselors if needed. She emphasizes the importance of early engagement and communication: "Deadlines are approaching quickly, so Seniors be sure to communicate with your counselor your college application intentions and stay organized through the process."
