Hey Seniors: Here
we go! Welcome to the first blog - YOUR blog.
So by now you know that Naviance is not a yoga move. Counselors have been meeting with you in
small groups to show you how Naviance will assist you in the college application
process. They have shared that they are
VERY IMPRESSED with how quickly you are adapting to our new online electronic
transcript process and how many of you are already making great progress with
your applications. Counselors are still
catching up with students. Last week
some of you missed your meeting because you participated in the Blood Drive or were
SWARMED by BEES on Circle Drive! (This
really happened, but College Coach is sworn to secrecy.)
If you have additional college questions,
please make an appointment with your counselor.
They will be available to help you every step of the way.
Have you started your ESSAY?!! There are helpful essay starters in your
blue packets. Many of your Senior
English classes will have an essay/personal statement unit. Your English teacher can look over a draft to
give you some great input. Also, there
are three Essay Writing Workshops to
help you get started or to help you polish your draft.

DON'T FEAR THE ESSAY. Use it to let the college admissions staff know
who you are and why their campus will be enhanced because you are there!
