TWINSBURG HIGH SCHOOL BRAG SHEET
To The Seniors of 2014:
Colleges, schools and employers will be asking you to submit a counselor/teacher recommendation. In order to write a complete recommendation, we need some information from you. Please complete this form carefully and think before you write.
Remember that this is a “BRAG” sheet and it is one of the few times someone will ask you about your accomplishments. So—BRAG! We are not only interested in the activities, courses, interests or jobs in which you have been involved; we want to know what you accomplished. Was there a project, a course, something that you did that was meaningful to you?
Counselors will not write a recommendation without this completed sheet. Please keep a copy of this brag sheet before turning it in to the Guidance Office.
