College Awareness

Hello SEAD Family!

This week, I have lots of updates on college topics. The first update concerns the college blog: I'm meeting with all the scholars and discussing different types of colleges (2- and 4-year) as well as specialized schools. Links to the SEAD blog's in-depth exploration of these topics are below!

In keeping with this college knowledge emphasis, SEAD-BCSM is going on 3 college tours next week during the February break. It's always helpful to see as many colleges as possible to give you a sense of what you're looking for, and we're doing a mix of private and public 4-year colleges/universities. On Tuesday, February 17th we're going to Hunter College at 3pm for an information session and tour. On Wednesday, February 18th we'll explore the New School at 3pm and on Thursday, February 19th we'll head to Fordham (Lincoln Center). I'm so excited to hear your thoughts, which will aid us in ongoing conversations about your college lists.

Finally, we'll be ending next week with a bowling trip on Saturday (2/21) at 2pm at Gun Post Lanes!

Looking forward to this week at BCSM before the break!

Best,
Sarah
