FOR JUNIORS
Junior year is when the plan begins to take shape.
Junior year is where everything begins to come together. Standardized testing, deeper involvement in the activities students care about, stronger academic footing, and the first real picture of what life after high school could look like. By the second half of the year, the college list is taking shape, families are visiting campuses, and Common App accounts are open.
It's also the year I work most closely with families. A calm, steady presence to pace the work, decide what matters when, and keep the momentum going so that the year feels productive instead of overwhelming.
