The Class of 2025 faced an exceptionally challenging college application cycle this year. The largest graduating class in US history saw more competition than ever with record high numbers of applications across the country. So I am especially proud of my Seniors this year who persevered through the process and are all headed to amazing colleges this fall! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

My current Seniors have been nothing short of Amazing this year!!
My students are so much more than statistics to me, but here's a snapshot of how we ended 2024.
Looking forward to the New Year with many more college decisions to come over the next couple of months!

Okay, I know, I should leave the creative writing to my talented students!

And I'd guess most of them aren't actually sleeping right now :)
Hopefully, they are finding time to celebrate- 🎉over 100 applications submitted so far, and 16 early acceptances already! 🎉

(I'm the one who is actually going to sleep now 🙃)
