• Virtual College Fair:  Many of Louisiana’s post-secondary institutions are happy to announce that they will take part in a Virtual College Fair (April 6th - April 9th). The Virtual College Fair will offer students the chance to hear from college representatives and to ask any questions they may have.  This is a great opportunity in lieu of Brother Martin’s: Junior’s Take the Next Step Program that was scheduled for April 20th. Please see this attached link to sign up for either the 3:00 p.m. or 6:00 p.m session.  They do ask that Brother Martin students register for the Monday and Tuesday sessions (to keep capacity manageable).
