Meet Perspectives 'College Dad'
Tony and Shimika, Class of '08, now at Grambling State College '12You 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.
