Reading this and planning to do a Signature Project next year?

Here is what to do and not to do:

1. Yes, for most of you it will be your Senior year, and by January you will be tired and ready to go to college but... WAIT!!! Your Signature Project is SUPER important! So,

Yes, DO NOT PROCRASTINATE. If you want your Project to be successful, do it now. Do not wait until "after Spring Break" to plan things out.

2. Keep a list of PRIORITIES. If you are a Senior, the most important thing in your list should be college. Yes, finish your applications, write your essays, submit them on time. Then, it is up to you to divide school work and Signature work. But, do give your schedule a time to work on Signature things, if not you will not work on it.

3. Keep track of Schoology updates for Milestones. Schoology should be your best friend by now, but if not, make it your best friend and check it every day three times a day!

4. MEET WITH YOUR MENTOR. She or he will be able to support you, wipe your tears, provide you with new ideas or answers, give you new things to think about, and help you! But, do not forget to always thank them! Saying "thank you" is super duper important.

5. Related to Model United Nations, you should start working on your project during summer before starting your Senior Year. Things to do:

• Set goals and milestones for yourself
• Start thinking about your final goal. Is it your own conference? Is it attending extra conferences? It is up to you!
• Work on your project and relate it to other things. What about doing MUN for Community Service? Helping a Public School create their own club?
• Think about the CLUB! Handling Club stuff is very important and should be equal priority as handling Signature Project stuff.

6. Make sure you have as many people as possible interested in the Activities Fair at the beginning of the school year. It is what is going to make your conference and your club successful.
