来自硅谷的问候!
虽然时间很短, it is wonderful to have the energy and spirit back on campus after a much needed breather. 12月就要期末评估了, I would be untruthful if I told you all was as calm as this Alan Zhou ‘24 photo of Spooner Pond might suggest, but I can tell you I am confident in this Senior Class’s resolve and determination to finish the Fall Term doing some of their best work. I hope you are feeling a sense of ease as the application process nears its completion.
我们即将进入寒假, it is time to complete a few tasks toward the secondary school admission process. 有关更详细的信息,请参阅下文, but know that Julie and I stand by to assist and troubleshoot any challenges you may face.
Amidst all this, try to maintain perspective and use good common sense. 你的孩子会感谢你的
为它!
让我们保持联系!
最好的,
克莱顿

ACTION ITEMS - Please take some time to read through these:
SUBMIT YOUR CHILD’S LIST OF SCHOOLS TO WHICH THEY ARE APPLYING
If you have not done so already, PLEASE email to Julie Fredlund (jfred@tamascandle.net) the list of schools to which your child is in fact applying or will apply to, 和方法 你正在申请(i).e., SAO, GATEWAY,学校自己的门户网站,论文). WE NEED THIS ACCURATE INFORMATION as soon as possible.
If your child will be applying to a school which uses an application method other than SAO or Gateway or has a different application calendar, 请让朱莉(jfred@tamascandle.net) know which schools and which dates are the deadlines. 你越早这么做, the more efficient our process can be in support of your child's applications to secondary schools.
Remember that over 500 schools accept the SAO, 61 accept Gateway and 9 exclusively use Gateway.
Gateway的独家用户是Choate Rosemary Hall, 迪尔菲尔德正规博彩平台学习, 格罗顿学校, 霍奇学校, 林登学院, 菲利普斯学院, 菲利普斯埃克塞特学院, St. 保罗和韦伯学校. 多数规则!
ssat -增加分数顾问 & 发送ssat成绩
请确保你有 增加拉姆齐·霍尔作为得分顾问 不是推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜参加的SSAT考试. Please DO NOT send any scores to schools until you are asked to do so in January.
As for whether or not to submit scores- you own them and it is your decision.
SSAT -更新学校现在要求SSAT分数
As you can see, more schools are requiring scores this year. 它们包括:
贝勒学校, 葛学校, 女王学校, 卡尔弗学院, 迪尔菲尔德正规博彩平台学习, 格罗顿学校, 希尔学校, 森林湖学院, 码的学校, 米德尔塞克斯正规博彩平台, Peddie学校, Perkiomen学校, 菲利普斯埃克塞特学院, 塔夫脱学派, 目的学校, 和Westtown学校.
If you are applying to any of these schools, you will have to send scores. 对于那些仍然是可选的学校, I am confident that they are treating them as truly 可选 pieces of an applicant’s file. 比如一个可选的建议, 提交艺术作品作品集, 或者高光胶片, 他们可以提供帮助, 但如果他们不在那里,也不会受伤. 如果成绩好,请提交.
申请/评分论文/推荐信
November’s 通讯 contained detailed information with several instructions about the application process. We need to queue up our process in concert with the providers, 标准在线应用程序(SAO)和网关, 作为校长.
作为你孩子申请的一部分,a 分级的文章 可能需要. This is a piece of writing that your child and his/her current English or history teacher will meet about and choose. 然后你的孩子会上传它 转到适当的应用程序门户. There is often some sort of form that accompanies the essay. The essay need NOT be the best grade of the year thus far, but it should be the essay from English or history class that best captures your child's representative academic writing. Be aware that I have checked with both VII Form English teachers and they are both assigning a formal essay as an End of Term Assessment. 他们可以选择这篇文章. Some students have already completed this step with our help here on campus. 请务必与您的孩子确认.
拉姆齐·霍尔正在处理英语, 数学, Transcripts/Official School Reports and Principal/ Guidance 建议s. I have discussed with many of you, your child may choose to ask an additional recommender for a “个人”或“特殊兴趣” 建议. A 个人的建议 can add some color to your child's file from someone inside or outside of school who can speak to your child's personal qualities on a first hand basis. A 特殊利益 建议 can add context to your child's particular talent, skill or interest in a specific area. Indeed this could be academic, artistic, athletic, service, camp, Scouts, or religious related. It certainly can be someone inside or outside of Rumsey but 你的孩子需要接近那个人并询问 之前 请求被发送推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜他们. 这不是父母应该做的事. 在这种情况下, you will need to add that person's email address and name to the request in SAO or Gateway. Your students have taken care of this step- for the most part. 有一些人仍然需要完全完成它, and I am confident that it will be done by the time they arrive home for Winter Recess.
财政援助申请
Typically, the requirements vary from school to school. Please pay particular attention to this and check each school's website for specifics. Also, know that the deadlines are usually similar to the application deadlines. Thus you will need to have the required tax years and forms available to upload.
角色技能快照
The Character Skills Snapshot (CSS) is used by admission officers to gain additional information across seven character traits. 它是 可选 适用于几乎所有学校,但可能有少数学校需要. If you choose to take the Snapshot and want to submit the results, 你们将在寒假期间完成这项工作. 评估大约需要30分钟. 访问CSS将在您的孩子的可用 ssat.org 门户网站. Please use the resource below for more information and check out the short video: http://www.ssat.org/snapshot#take-the-snapshot
正规博彩平台的联系
You and your child may continue to receive correspondence and invitations from admissions officers, 来自正规博彩平台的项目领导和教练. If you have any questions about their tone or meaning, 请与我联系,并把信件寄来. 至于邀请参加虚拟活动, do not feel as if you need to accumulate face time with a prospective school in this process. 你没有义务参加. However, if you are uncertain about what a school is all about, by all means attend.
