My Project

In Junior Seminar, students learn the ins and outs of the ACT; remediate content in English, Math, Reading, and Science; and learn and practice strategies for taking this very important test. Aside from this, our class also focuses on self-discovery, exploring post-secondary options, and understanding how to pick, apply for, and qualify for college. We also lead financial planning and adjusting to the transition from adolescents to college-bound adults.

Having headphones, markers and the basic school supplies we need will ensure that there is no delay or interruption in learning for our students.

We can get and keep them engaged.
