With this interactive workshop for students in grades 10, 11 and 12, participants will advance their academic and co-curricular decision making, self-knowledge and interviewing skills.

They will increase self-esteem, motivation to achieve, and responsible behavior through the Dependable Strengths Articulation Process (DSAP).  A trained facilitator will help them with discovery of their core strengths and abilities by identifying key successes in a small group process.   With this self-knowledge as a foundation,  they will create a narrative inventory to practice communicating their specific talents and skills in real life situations.  After this workshop, students will draw on what they learned about themselves far into the future!  Saturday, July 30.




This review of each section of the ACT can help you build confidence and increase your scores. Complete sample tests, learn test-taking tips and review subject matter to help you perform more quickly and comfortably on test day.
