Back to School – Getting a Jump on Next Year
Here is a tip for those with kids in high school.  Each year, schools have ‘Parent Night’ to let parents know what to expect during the school year: college prep events, SAT/PSAT tests, expenses during the year and important dates.

 

Get a jump on these topics by going to the ‘Parent Night’ for grade ahead of your child.  For example, this year my teen is a Junior in high school.  I will go to both the 11 grade and 12 grade parent nights.

 

Don’t forget to check out the College Prep page on CelebrateFamily.us.  College Fairs begin Sept 10, 2017.  Deadline to register for October SAT is Sept. 8.  Test date for PSAT for juniors interested in National Merit Scholarships is October 18, 2017.
