Reminder:Junior Parent College Planning Night

This is a reminder that the junior parent college planning night will be held Tuesday, April 10th at 6:30 pm. The presentation will be held in the O’Keefe Commons, and there will be breakout sessions for parents with their son’s counselor, where specific questions can be posed. If you are unsure of your son’s counselor, make sure you ask him before the presentation. Topics that will be addressed include college application timelines, standardized testing, importance of visiting colleges, introduction to financial aid, creating a realistic college list, parent and student responsibilities, decision plans, and much more! We will also introduce Naviance to parents and demonstrate how to navigate the system and which tools to use. Parents will be given their son’s transcript with their own personal Naviance code to get started. This is a very important night for all parents of juniors at Prep, so please make every effort to attend if you are free!
