A recommendation form is REQUIRED to complete the application. Please contact an adult who has recently worked with you closely. This can be a classroom teacher, coach, music or dance teacher, scout leader, youth group leader, or club adviser. This person should NOT be a parent or other family member. Ask an adult who has known you for at least a year and who has had the opportunity to observe you with your peers (in-person or virtually). We recommend sending them the form link directly.
