So I was on vacation and so was the blog. I rested and have returned to a pile of papers on my desk....grrr....back to the onslaught of work. Sharon Chai left for The Brook Hill School and has sent us pictures of her new school. Jasmine Lee should be joining her soon. EIGHT THINGS TO LEARN FROM NEW SCHOOLS 1) Participate 2) Know teachers well and have a great relationship of research, query and continuous learning. 3) Use your dorm life as an introspective view of self, work out relationship issues with roommates. Discover yourself along the way. 4) Save your money. Earn it, no matter how small and stash it away for a rainy day. 5) See the opportunities in every day. Notice boards, a chance meeting... 6) Work out and be religious about it. 7) Learn to say no more than you say yes. 8) Do not judge a book by its cover. ACT Those registering for ACT will find that they will be on stand by. Accept it and go on stand by. SAT Time to start registering for SAT I and II. Not on the same day, though. CONSULTATIONS Going nicely. I see more than 12 essays per person being done. I am happy. SSAT CLASSES I am impressed with the SSAT groups, The book reports are getting better and better...
