Academic Planning

Begin by setting up your College Board account, so you can begin using My Organizer.

Our Advisory periods consist of discovering student interests, creating college searches, and learning about colleges that match these interests. An important part of creating our college-going culture is turning students' thoughts from, "Should I go to college?" to, "Which is the best college I can go to?"

The process includes:

  • Preparing for Collge Board Tests -- SAT, AP, etc.
  • Planning for College
  • Finding a College
  • Tracking Academic Progress
  • Applying to Colleges
  • Locating Financial Aid


Positive recommendations are more meaningful when they come from instructors who have gotten to know you well. You will be well known in a class of 8.

Personal statements cannot be thrown together at the last minute. We will guide you in developing your portfolio over the course of your time with us.

A demonstrated interest can only be shown when you have researched the colleges you apply to. You will set up a College Board account during your first week with us, and you will use it to research colleges based on your true interests.

We provide access to standard, as well as unique, extracurricular activities and community service opportunities.
