NACAC Virtual College Fairs
Students can choose from thousands of Zoom sessions offered by more than 600 colleges and universities. They just log in on November 8 and then drop in, ask questions, and hear firsthand about majors and programs, financial aid and scholarships, and much more.
Students love participating in these college fairs!
More than 93 percent rate their experience as excellent or good. For high school juniors, it's the most engaging way to dream about college and start their search. For seniors, it's a chance to narrow their choices and demonstrate interest.
Please sign up today!
Attention Students:
New! Free Virtual Drop-In Meditation for Teens
We're living in unprecedented times, and we all need time to reset and find inner calm and peace so we can move through our day with a little more ease.
Mindfulness practice is much like lifting weights; if we don't practice, our "mindfulness muscle" won't get stronger, and we won't notice its benefits. Our teen classes are an introduction to mindfulness, but they typically don't result in teens establishing a regular practice for themselves.
These free, weekly drop-in meditations are designed to form an online community of support for teens everywhere. We will open with a community greeting, listen to a short teaching, then be led in a mindfulness or mindful self-compassion practice.
Once teens are registered and receive the Zoom link, they can drop in every week as their schedule permits. I encourage teens to make this weekly commitment to their well-being!
I hope to see you there, and please share with friends.
With gratitude,
Cheryl Blackington
