Fall Semester only class: 

The class is geared for Grade 12 students applying to college in the fall, but is acceptable for Grade 11 students applying to colleges early or in the spring. The class will start with the students’ researching potential colleges, then their working on the Common Application, and finish with their writing and revising college and scholarship essays.

Text / Materials Required - Pen, notebook, and folder for in class work, as well as access to the internet for homework assignments. Must establish a Common Application account.

References Used – None

Class Expectations – There will be a weekly message from me to the family’s and student’s email(s) with homework assignment and materials to watch (if any) no later than Monday evening. Come prepared and ready to work. Always show respect to yourself, others, and our surroundings.

Absences - Please email me of any scheduled missed classes and send me any work that was due before the following class for feedback. In the case of unplanned absences, please email me the night before or text me at 336-517-4127 with 1. parent’s name, 2. student’s name, “won’t be at class today” on day of class.

Progress Reports – I will provide feedback on class attendance and participation. Participation will be assessed in terms of timeliness and quality of activities done. The parent as primary educator then can use my criteria as a basis for the student’s grade. I will email the Progress reports with the weekly assignment on/ shortly after the scheduled date.
