Just a reminder 11th grade parents, our first College 301 workshop is tomorrow night at 6:00 pm. We will be discussing the college application process and how parents can support and guide this process. We will also talk about the difference between the ACT and the SAT and which one is best for your student.

Get Involved

High School just isn't the same unless you get involved in something you are interested in. School clubs, a job, church groups, political organizations, and volunteer work are all ways to explore topics you are interested in and to gain valuable experience. Colleges want to see that you didn't just have your nose stuck in a book all during high school. Your college application and resume looks really good if you pick one or two things that you really like and get involved in related activities.
