[quote=Anonymous]Having put 2 kids through the J-R process and with a rising Sr now, my best advice is the process must be self driven. There is no hand-holding and no one who can spend significant time helping your child identify schools. DCPS limited approved absent days for college visits to 2 per year, so if you want to make a number of visits, plan accordingly. Many schools do visit the school, but again, getting excused absences to attend those sessions takes some planning, and often kids don't want to miss too many classes to go to all of the sessions. Naviance is a good resource. Learn how to use it early on. Also, the common app is open the summer before senior year, so the more you can fill out before classes start, the better off your kid will be. Good luck.[/quote]
