September 2023 Announcements

Parents and Students: I hope the bustle of the new school year is calming down and you are feeling confident about the months to come. Things are settling into place at CJLC and we are rolling right ahead. A few announcements: 1. We will be closed September 4th for Labor Day. If your student needs a session that week, please let us know as soon as you can. The schedule is already pretty full, but we will do our best to fit you in. 2. Some of you have been asking about fall travel plans. We follow the Petaluma City Schools calendar, and I have updated the calendar with all the vacation days for the school year. If you will miss your tutoring sessions for travel, please email us the dates as soon as you can. We appreciate advance notice for absences because it allows other students to use the open spots for rescheduled sessions or for extra help. 3. Juniors: I know school just started, but I don't want you to forget about keeping up with your college and career research. The spotlight is on the seniors right now, but keep making progress on your goals. 4. Seniors: It is time to start condensing the list of colleges. I recommend choosing a total of seven: 2 reach, 3 moderate, and 2 safe. The applications and personal statements take a lot of time, so you need to be judicious. Don't spread yourself too thin, and don't procrastinate. It's go time. You can do this. There are many good things ahead. We believe in you and are excited to help you on your journey. Christie & Team
