My Students

We need to have a collection of current college books available in our guidance suite and college office so counselors can look at books together with students and families.

Our talented students spend hours every day studying art, dance, drama, music, or technical theater in addition to a full rigorous academic load.

Some go on to continue their studies at a conservatory, but most continue on to a competitive academic college or university.

My Project

Students can come to our offices and browse our library during their free period. I also meet with students and their families to review their college options. Many of our high-performing academic students come from low-income families, and do not have access at home to college guidance books. These books will provide guidance counselors the opportunity to lend students copies to take home.

These new books will be shared with my colleagues in the guidance and college offices and will help all the students in our school.

Please help us to help our students to take their talents to the next level!
