Did you know that the UHS College and Career Counseling Center is a UHS parent supported initiative that is funded through UHS parent and business donations?
The UHS Parents’ Association provides funding for two essential staff members in the College and Career Counseling Center. We provide a grant for Ms. Lori Minor to work with our students and parents in a variety of areas including writing college applications, scholarship essays, DBQs, FRQs, test taking skills, note taking skills, PSAT, SAT and ACT preparation, and running student study groups. Here is what a former UHS student had to say about working with Ms. Minor:
“As a senior, I find Ms. Minor has been a priceless asset for editing college application and scholarship essays. At UHS, students strive for excellence, and Ms. Minor’s adept skill and experience in college administration and creative essay writing enable us to achieve our full potential. Additionally, she is a much needed addition to the beloved counseling and student support team for all grade levels.”
– Rachel Done, UHS Class of 2015, Current Student at Yale University
