Parents, are you overwhelmed by the high school to college rat race? We've got you.

- What to prioritize in grades 9–11 so your teen stays on track and avoids the last-minute scramble in grade 12
- How admissions officers actually evaluate applications, and why “strong enough” can look different than parents expect
- Which opportunities and choices really move the needle, from classes and activities to essays and testing
- The parents’ role in the process: when to guide, when to step back, and how to support without overwhelming
You don’t have to navigate this process in the dark. Join us and walk away with practical tools, expert advice, and the confidence to support your teen’s goals!
