Description

Author Cal Newport says in his book, How to Be a High School Superstar, "getting into college doesn't have to be a chore to survive, but instead can be the reward for living a genuinely interesting life." House of Shine could not agree more!

Join this panel discussion with local guidance counselors, college admissions staff, and recent high school graduates to discuss Newport's book and reimagining how we prepare young people for a successful college application process. This panel discussion will debunk the myth that students need to be involved in a plethora of activities, clubs and sports organizations and have perfect grades in order to be admitted to college.

This limited seating program is for parents of students in grade 7, 8, 9 and 10. Register online through EventBrite.com.
