Counselor-led workshops for every stage of school

Admissions is a long process, not a senior-year scramble. The decisions that shape a student's options start well before high school, so these sessions run at the point where they actually change outcomes. There is something here for a parent with a seventh grader, not just a senior.

Four sessions run each month and rotate through the calendar below, so there's new programming across the school year rather than one burst in the fall. Families are welcome at any session, whatever grade their student is in.

01

Habits and placement

  • Study Skills and Getting Organized

    Grades 5–12

    How to plan a week, break big assignments into steps, and study in a way that holds. The habits that decide whether a student’s effort actually shows up in their grades.

  • Middle School Course Placement

    Grades 6–8

    How math and science placement in middle school shapes what’s available in high school, and which decisions are hard to reverse later.

02

Building the record

  • Building a Competitive Record

    Grades 8–10

    What colleges look for in a transcript, and how ninth and tenth grade course selection shapes options later.

  • Summer Programs and Internships

    Grades 9–11

    How to find programs worth the money, which ones carry weight, and how to build a summer that fits the student.

03

Testing and the college list

  • SAT and ACT Strategy

    Grades 10–11

    Which test fits your student, when to take it, how many times, and how test-optional policies actually work.

  • Building the College List

    Grade 11

    How to build a balanced list using real admissions data instead of rankings.

04

Applications and aid

  • Scholarship Search

    Grades 11–12

    Where scholarship money actually comes from, and why institutional aid usually matters more than outside awards.

  • Financial Aid and FAFSA

    Grade 12, useful earlier

    The FAFSA and CSS Profile, how aid packages are built, and how to read an offer.

  • Applications and Essays

    Grade 12

    What the application asks for, how the essay gets read, and how parents can support without taking over.
