PSP Intro to High School Choice Workshop with Joyce Szuflita @ OSH

This two-hour talk will prepare families for the NY High School Fair and tours in the fall. The DOE has many good programs and publications, but this talk is from the point of view of a parent who has been there and understands what you need to know and why. I describe the process quickly and clearly without the deadly powerpoint used elsewhere.

This talk is designed for general-ed students. The parents of students with disabilities often find it useful to have this baseline, but there will be wrinkles to your search for which I do not have expertise.

I will:

give you a practical strategy to organize and manage the search.
help you understand how to interpret the data that is available.
give you tough love and options.
focus on what you need to know and when from a parent's point of view.
impart a little advice on what the high school choice means for the college search.

While I will use some schools as examples for clarity, I am not going into detail about individual programs (there are 700 of them, so...) That is what I do in a private consult. Here is what one parent had to say about one of Joyce's talks:

"...I was so impressed - I laughed, I cried :) - I left feeling not only informed but mentored and coached from one parent to another - I truly appreciate the work you do, the energy you do it with and the humor you bring to the table to keep us all sane."

Tickets are $25.00/member and $30.00 for non-members. Sorry, there are no refunds.
