We have heard from many of you by now with a preliminary plan for the school search and have reviewed your lists. As we have reported in past 通讯s, there will be a traditional Senior Week (October 17 - 22). If you have not yet done so, now is the time to make interview appointments. 不管每所学校的方式是虚拟的还是面对面的, it will be best to schedule the bulk of your interviews and tours for the week of October 17. 如果可能的话, please keep the following athletic contests in mind as your child will have obligations to their team:
星期六,10月15日-高中家长日
大学橄榄球队主场红人队vs. 下午2:30蓝调.m.
女子大学足球队主场对. 威斯敏斯特,下午2:30.m.
大学曲棍球队主场对. 下午2:30在坎特伯雷.m.
大学排球队主场对. 下午2:30.m.
Knowing how each school is approaching their interview and visitation process is essential, and will require you to be checking in with admissions offices in case of shifts. Though I am sure if they pivot and you are scheduled for an in-person tour and interview, 如有变动,他们会通知你的. We are anticipating that there may be a few Seniors on campus during this week, and we are in the process of formulating plans to keep them busy as well as available for any virtual appointments. 如果你的高年级学生会在学校过高年级周, please use the week of October 17 to schedule any virtual interviews and tours. Please keep Julie and me up to date as your schedule begins to take shape- 特别是 if you are the parent of a boarding student. I will want to help facilitate a quiet place for any interview/virtual tour if they are going to be on campus.. Please email Julie your final interview schedule (including interview dates, times and schools) at jfred@bestelighting.com. This is important for our work and also for attendance purposes.

Some of you are working with a different calendar and that is absolutely appropriate. 让我们保持信息畅通. 如果你的孩子是NEW VIIth Former,要有耐心. 还有很多时间. 在大部分面试之前, I will conduct interview workshops for the students to help prepare them for the process, 这是, 事实上, 评估. This will be done during our time together in our 4S Class this fall.

我们已经并将继续讨论这个问题, handwritten “thank you” notes to interviewers and tour guides (if you had one) are a must. We will be working on developing the notes following the bulk of interviews. Be sure your child retains all names of interviewers and tour guides. The timing of these notes is deliberate for maximum impact. If your child needs notecards and/or stamps, we have those available in our office.

承认事件
It is likely that you and your student will receive invitations to admissions events at secondary schools. Virtual open houses, athletic and artistic events are created with the prospective family in mind. If you have an appointment for a tour and interview scheduled, 你不觉得你必须参加开放日吗. There should be no need to feel that you must accumulate facetime and demonstrate interest at this point.
