UPrep Week Two!
University of California Berkeley
TOUR TIME! Stanford - UC Davis - CSU Sacramento
Students participated in 3 massive tours this past week. On Tuesday, we drove out to the rural college town of Davis for a tour of the massive UC Davis campus. After learning the rich history behind the biggest UC campus, we headed over to CSU Sacramento and got a look into the beautiful facilities designed for student well-being.
Thursday, we went to the 2nd largest university campus in the world. The tour at Stanford was highly anticipated and it did not disappoint. We learned about athletics, academics, housing, cost and ideas for incoming freshmen to stay on top of their game.

SAT and Student Projects
Students took another practice SAT Saturday with hopes of improving their scores. For the College Prep class, students wrote resumes and college essays. For College Seminar, students presented in groups about a specific university. Students have also been researching majors and deciding what type of college fits their personality.
Talent Show!
Students gathered in the rec room and entertained their peers with showings of great talent. From soccer ball juggling to dancing, the talent show had it all. One sentence was translated into 4 different languages. Teah performed a dance number to the song Fancy. Moe unlocked her inner Michael Jackson. Joe modeled the proper way to fall asleep.
