Happy First Day of School!

Well Class of 2012, it all begins today. Congratulations on finally being seniors, taking over the Lodge, and being one year away from COLLEGE! Speaking of college - clever transition, right? - here is the rundown on the next few weeks.

• We will be visiting your English classes over the next 2 weeks to go over the deadlines and procedures for college applications.
• Your parents are invited to Senior College Night on September 14th.
• You will attend an essay writing workshop led by Parke Muth, Senior Assistant Dean at UVA who has been widely published on the subject of college essay writing. He is also an incredibly engaging speaker, brilliant conversationalist, and all around nice person! We are incredibly lucky that he has agreed to lead our workshop.
• Our calendars are up! Please sign up to see your college counselor as soon as you get your back to school bearings so that we can go over your college application plans.

That's all for now! I don't know about you, but I don't mind the dismal weather today because it's not like we could be at the beach or the pool anyway.
