I'm very excited to announce the launch of my new online, self-paced course for Bay Area parents, School Selection Success.
https://www.schoolselectionsuccess.com/

School Selection Success is a comprehensive blueprint for finding the best Bay Area Elementary or Middle School for your child, and maximizing their chances of getting accepted.

The course provides CLEAR, step-by-step guidance on how to navigate each part of the admissions process, ensuring nothing is missed along the way.

The course is designed exclusively for parents of children entering school between Pre-K and 8th grade who want to be confident they are choosing the best fit school for their child and are doing everything possible to maximize their chances of getting accepted.

By the end of the course, you will know:

✅ How to narrow down the options to a small list of schools catered to YOUR family and child(ren)'s needs and values.

✅ How to master the application and enrollment process, and tailor your applications to exactly what schools are looking for.

✅ How the financial aid process works, and how to predict your award.

✅ The BEST strategies to navigate decisions, waitlists, contracts, and different scenarios that can arise when schools send out acceptance letters.

✅ How to handle special circumstances such as moving to the Bay Area, mid-year transfers, having a neurodiverse child, and more.

You can enroll and begin the course at any time. The course includes over two and a half hours of video tutorials designed for busy parents to watch at your own pace. You will also receive access to 7 downloadable worksheets and templates to help guide you through your school search and selection journey.
