Meet Perspectives 'College Dad'
|
You may have heard that since 2006, 92% of our graduates have attended
college, with the majority attending 4-year universities. Since 2006, nearly
80% college-bound Perspectives students are still in college today! Instrumental in helping our students achieve
this is Tony Seiden, Director of College Counseling and Student Information
Systems - better known as the Perspectives 'College Dad.' Having worked with
some of our students and their families since 6th grade, students know they can
count on Tony for direction,good
advice, and academic and emotional support. Even in their college years, Tony
keeps in touch, always ready to lend an ear or a hand to students away from
home for the first time.
