Please join us on Wednesday, April 18th at 6:30 pm in the Little Theater for Parent Power school. Back by popular demand we will have our alumni panel of nine La Quinta alumni who will share with parents their experiences in various colleges. We highly recommend that you bring your high school student with you to hear and learn from alumni about their experiences in applying for and attending college and planning for their career. There will be an opportunity for both you and your student to ask them questions about their challenges and successes. Translation services will be available.
We hope to see you all on Wednesday evening at 6:30 pm.
