🎓 Everything Juniors and Families Should Know Before Senior Year!

Laura hosted a live session that broke down everything families need to know about navigating junior year with focus and calm. She covered what to do (and when), how to manage competing priorities, and what truly moves the needle in the college process.

This interactive session, with live Q&A, answers parents' questions about timelines, motivation, and how to support students during a time when it's easy to feel overwhelmed and stuck.

✨ Topics Covered:

  • The timeline for testing, essays, and college exploration
  • How to balance academics, activities, and downtime
  • The critical role of executive function—organization, planning, and follow-through
  • What to do when students procrastinate or feel stuck
  • How to stay supportive without creating extra pressure

🎯 Outcomes:

Parents leave with a clear roadmap for the rest of junior year, a deeper understanding of their student’s readiness, and tools to keep the process steady, structured, and student-centered.
