College Interview Day
| Saint Basil Academy was host to 35 colleges and universities on Monday, April 15th , with many colleges and universities providing more than one representative. The day provided a wonderful opportunity for our junior students to meet and discuss potential applicant status with the various schools. Students were asked to select 5 schools from the list provided and most schools were 'booked' from 8:45am until 3:00pm. The students, although anxious at first, embraced the day and actually approached other schools not on their lists to acquire additional information. This opportunity provides a wealth of information for our students as they initiate and/or continue their college search process. Many thanks to Linda Smith, our College Counselor, and Carol Abel, our Guidance Office Assistant for overseeing and organizing this event! |
