Great Western at 9:05 we have a couple more parents coming in welcome everyone want to see us okay it is 905 I'm so we will get started and then his parents could see her come in or let them in this parent seminar will be bilingual suggest dad's be patient with me as we go through each slide each piece, and I will be taking questions as we go just please plug them into the chat or when I asked for questions you can unmute yourself I said that I know I'm one of the counselors for at Alliance marine and a topic that I really want to talk about today is a competitive College applicant many students can apply to call many students have the admissions requirements like met able to apply to college and possibly get accepted to college but it's very different if as a parent you're considering is my student a competitive College applicant I said belinga estar de de los alumnos application or Sebastian do applicant a competitive horse that's what they make a Kitty doll platicar let me guess it's working Carson CNN completo coronavirus Tito's minimos the admission Arabic Coronavirus David completa con Los recoditos Minnie Mouse para poder aplicar La Tienda sting tour concert one applicant a competitive or is this is Rick I must have let out on this game, Stickman time at cone Estes in 3 is just a piece images this is the data from 2018 in case of pre-pandemic pre covid and just to show you how many people applied students applied to these UCS in 2018 there were 99000 applicants to UC San Diego and here are some average GPA High School average GPA for the students that got accepted okay it's between a 4.0 in a 4.2 it can we look here at UC Riverside forty-nine thousand applicants the average GPA of the students that got accepted to that specific you see was between a 3 point six nine and a 4.1 as you can guess this one is UCLA UCLA had over a hundred thousand applicants and their average GPA was a little bit higher than you should send Diego it was between 4.18 and 4.32 so I bring up these images because it's really important to consider the fact that a student at 10 meet the minimum requirements to be able to be eligible to apply to a college whether it's the you see or a cal state or a private school or an out-of-state college but it's very different when we're talking then as counselors as parents as everyone collaborating with the students on whether or not the student is a competitive applicant okay so a student with a 3.5 GPA is competitive for UC Merced because their average GPA to tune a 3.4 to a 4.0 but probably not competitive for UCLA or San Diego but very close if you see Riverside it doesn't it has to do with a 3.5 GPA can I get accepted to you see because Rihanna talk about what being a competitive applicant looks like it's not just a bunch of kid there's other stuff but this is part of it right and so I'm going to transition to space I kissed a nice photos. Oh they look ugly contest at the store job in San Diego for an average GPA if you guys are still selling mascara waterproof did I most like e u c l a if it's an omen of seeing Vance and ODS calendar at the show the average GPA they do scarification shelale cuatro punto Tres. But I think I don't know you see is set up as he can see what I look like what does Cinco de Amar said yeah he'll average GPA at a tres cuatro cinco cuatro punto cero El beso Sunday at the stinky rentrer Israel Hewlett Harbor is it going to snow in Pocono Mountain school because she has been at those areas are the facts detectamet Adele a web de los an RC that is so I give it to get better let you see going to pull in bed it's just I want Eagles on the ya no tiene que Ser El Mirage Quattro requirements now like the city has been told scratched off and number 836 at Mission requirements for you see for the Cal State it's now 3 but there's a big change that happened and I wanted to show everyone first what the requirement used to be in the new requirement is that you need a 2.0 GPA minimum to be eligible for a cow's date but not why because now we don't worry about the SAT so great she doesn't have to take a c t butt what time is it in Kuwait but grades matter that much more and that's what what I want to talk about today that to be a competitive College applicant with its for you see for Cal State or for private there is one thing of meeting the minimum and another thing and wise counselors we encourage families to consider what else can the student into can I do any class can I do an honors class can they do community college class and every student is different and I never seen any. the same thing right but I do like four families to be informed about like what does the competition look like with applicants she get tested for eczema but it was Cal State Channel song but it says Montrose no customers Primera stress in the middle school diploma in the middle school next Tuesday at University Hospital they'd be lucky to get a 7 yes, I'm probably still in the salon in the middle Joe Casella City are numerous showcase a through G guess how old my support. 10th so what I have low in GPS dos punto cuatro a CKC I'll even throw the farthest aluminum foil by Cyril anniversary. Now you see me to switch that is snow or no Illinois State, you see Minnie Mouse dress punto cero no mask what Illuminati is no asbestos s Cal State that is supposed to say yeah see Barcelona's calificaciones competitive acceptance tell best no resuming Illuminati Tres puntos Arrow last oportunidades La probably. when a counselor does an analysis of a transcript and let's see if parent or a student says who am I eligible to apply to a you see so we're not going to stop you from applying to U C but based on admissions requirements just talking about EPA alone is student did not meet the minimum GPA requirement and that's a tough thing sometimes where a student wants to go to a certain diversity but it's forgetting that in high school you get to choose what high school to go to write in Middle School you get to choose what middle school to go to write but for college it's like everyone's muted but in college I mean you have to apply and you might get in and you might not and admissions requirements or straight there is no bending the rules those are the requirements so what is that a competitive CPA competitive GPA would be 3.7 or higher yes 3.7 that means mostly 8 what is not just a competitor GPA but how about just like we would apply to any University would be a 3.0 or higher you can and then a Bettina to print out to a 2.9 as soon as comply to CAL States but know that if you're on the low 2.0 there's a good chance that the response from the University would be a know why because they have thousands of applicants and there's trying to eliminate who you're trying to eliminate those that don't meet the minimum graduate the minimum requirements so they luckily I don't know know know by Selena Gomez Atwood looking to get cash express marijuana for their apricot about us never see that is being admitted into the hospital Alyssa Darcy that is but if I don't I don't know.

I could be so that they did all the 9th grade the semester 9th grade but not but not middle school so I grabbed a knife in Espanol Galen, Las Cruces be linking up on the information to Locust to Sergio Monticello High School, student the high school teachers daycare in Pleasanton California Citrus Valley High School after no Anderson, maybe we won't have any other questions that we're going to talk more about extracurriculars if there's another one from his is this information is something that our students are receiving up in a reading for me so we can go over with them or I can get a physical copy so that I may go over with them writing format meeting like like the admissions requirements pick what they are or do me like this presentation maybe because of this presentation sorry I didn't understand the question missing that you can talk now so I think she knew I was actually like you know just so that the kids see it like this is something I spoke to Sebastian about during the you know like the covid break is I told him I'm like you need to be spot on your stuff this year because this is like the big year for you to prove and show what you got because there's going to be some major changes going on you're going to put things out so they're going to be because they're taking things out there going to be no pay more attention to this that and the other yeah so you know I mean if I have something on paper that we can go over me personally I'm a visual learner like I'm better like with taking a look at what the changes are and what I need to do green instructions so I want to see I mean I don't know if maybe I think the presentation is something that would be good for them to see like what the changes I like this is Bret Stout this is going away this needs to be better this is the change that you need to make something in that format that I can go over with them okay and what we can do is maybe we can send it through parentsquare we can be like a one-sheet type of thing of like before Lily before covid new rule is after covid but I can missions instead of like this whole presentation have no problem sending this to you the presentation just like a little break down there Friday when she insults each would be good for all parents to have any ways of that admissions that there would be a good idea you're the students are receiving this information and advisory and lessons in a search of his students in the ticket at seriously I'm in advisory but we do do college prep classes One Week by the way for any printed is it okay if I left them on now in the middle school yandere high school election Marta sequin High School s Los Bebes eclair Esperanza in Los Lunas.

Schwartz guess I'm going to go to the next Slide the course rigor is just what we talked about I because I want to transition from GPS to give him a Vlad but mostly Yes or No Deal GPA porque quiero esta Rico where they care SMS to put the air on a Methodist or nada mean I noticed the Apple Iowa stunt a day premium that'll some cunado better than Barcelona I bake us the gala Crete area is equilateral let's go to Jenison gift determinant Pakistan the closest a c k c receiving your Mother's Day Maestro's Steakhouse ahead of a swallow study communication app Mustang Anna's mijares they don't have a class of students take is important acidic have a 3.8 GPA and never did and AP class or never did an honors class and admissions officers that are you see cuz we'll talk about the counts deprecation another day at the you see at a private school with a the student has a 3.83 I got a lot of bass great they never drop anything below a 3.8 great day even got straight A's when you're great but this student the type of classes they took they never challenge themselves more and don't decide with that right that mission officer will decide what to do with that they might say but I need some is going to challenge himself because college is challenging because I'm professors are challenging because some labs in class in college with her challenge a challenge every student needs to do all the aap's I have phenomenal students that this year me to tough decisions where they wanted $2 a piece and as we sat down there was like you know what AP Studio Art may not be the best fit for you and you might actually get a low grade on it because it's just it's not an area that you spent much time on but AP Physics is so let's do AP Physics and there's nothing wrong with swimming shirt but we want to make sure that the student can access as many AP classes and honors classes available to them but we also take into consideration that you're not trying to go into this field into the art field the art studio is not a good fit right or that I have a passing students that they love science or their insta math and they said put Miss I can do the AP Computer Science because it's a lot of Cody and I'm just I'm not as familiar and I don't know about that but I do really want to become a street great like that makes sense like that shows your interest that's okay and then we've had other students that will graduate this year taking all 10 out of 10 okay and so as long as a student can show on the application I'm going to show you what I mean by that what they did and why then it makes sense in this I'm going to connect is the community service question in a bit I think it will mean our casa particular presentation dealership PA address is 86 Cobra symbols it's Daniel. when is it going to snow in Toronto and get it said a social worker said research getting a cilantro. set apart of the AP Art Studio Plus they are they are they aren't the best no noise no one else will develop wedding I think I threw the snow. the instant book m e Claritin go to Sonoma State University Nicholas gusta El Arte Anki computer science AP art get in touch with someone else and it's okay so boy Sean Okay so Leprechaun the White House cameras la parte de las calificaciones what else as soon as I put on te amo Los Lunas difficile and Whisky a Go go see Como Isis located in Los Coyotes but what did he do with what you had access to how are you responsible with your time you don't need a huge list of things are participating in during this time but how do you plan to show your commitment or somebody to things that are important to you and I'll talk about this are you attempting to involve yourself and accessible community service opportunities example Bridge what to do if you text I said yes it would.

It's been cloudy okay Johnny is famous in the west Yakima Battle of Salamis ticking noise serenada bundle El Paisa Mustafa Al covid tested against epilepsy panda Bakersfield on the West End area areas I'm hoping I'm making some sense and Clarity because it is such a student by student thing I wanted to just give everyone the questions of if you ask your student this is she being resourceful what would the response to be with what's a cannibal and can't as so what I want to actually do here than the stop sharing for a second and I'm actually going to show everyone here the UC application because I think it's super important let me to sign in because I believe this visual being a visual I myself will add more clarity as to what it was his to draw entire life is so much can you share my screen here so every year with seniors the counselor we actually create a replica like I can walk applications this isn't really any other student is just me I'm sure brother has his that I want to show you all this piece of his academic history let me check the chat to make sure everyone sees it okay so the application for the UCS they want to know about you some basic information right where it where were you born any student can apply gay there is no discrimination based on race citizenship ethnicity or religion gender anything of that sort but this piece right here to make history is just section this is just a section of what it means so again just to show you this is a fake soon this is me pretending as we do this with our seniors this year the reader will look at the grades for every year every year did they do summer school did they make up a fail from the past did they go to a college Community College right here I put yes I went to La Mission because so many of her kids did but this is the part that I want to show everyone that tivities in Awards section because this is the section of the white house so I'm going to read it in English and then what would look perfect told us times today what you did inside the classroom and now you'll have the opportunity to tell us about what you're most proud of outside of the classroom we're looking for quality not quantity which means that even though you'll have room to tell us about 20 activities in a Ward's make sure to focus on the ones that that are most important to you choose experiences that demonstrate commitment responsibility leadership and most of all genuine Pinterest the student can stay I just 20 things I got 10 Awards five or attendants five our honor roll and I did 10 community service I did one hour at Montague Elementary cuz that's where I went I did one hour as the reading tutor for Valera because that's the middle school I did one hour at my church because you know I'm there anyways I did one hour play basketball because I tried fernangeles I did two hours cleaning the school because I asked my teacher if I could help her tidy up her classroom and Legos are five activities know those are five things they're not experiences not genuine interest it doesn't demonstrate commitment it says that you can check off list but you can get the hours you can get the 10 hours give me the graduation requirement absolutely but does that show responsibility does that show commitment and most of all to the show genuine interest do you have the potential to grow as a learner and as the Leader by your commitment doesn't mean you have to be president of the school so to me at 3 president of anything and doesn't mean you have to be in August club that are school maybe four things that a student did really well you tap a volunteer that yet Adam Elementary or like that at doctor's office with some sport was it persistent because maybe they have a great working relationship with the teacher and so they're literally the title would be teacher assistant maybe the 4th activity is they did like every month it they go to do at a charity place where were the volunteer they give up a Saturday a month I don't know that's for activities were there's actual commitment Ikea Las Vegas Conte Salon in Salon get Mass what else someone teleport para la la calidad sick of the big back TV.

you put a circle is Rocky Seto song does Jonas uno dos tres then of wanting that as soon as could possibly I'm going to put it right here extracurricular activity will Nesco helicopter I'm going to put child care without oven what did he do 3 days a week I prepped the food the lunch washed the dishes and and checked my three siblings homework each each week I checked on the social and emotional

Musica I got child care and I noticed I misspelled that none of us child care that you're okay we do you know sweet dividend manejando to Locust and then log our way to the zoo Coronavirus oceanair Elementary School Napa, when a nanny when I see that ekstrakurikuler grandemente admirado hospital ESO es la diferencia Entre una Luna. Noah Sonata affordable Salon okie dokie so on our way Frederick Douglass ever set up an update Destin is demonstrated to the reader that they ditched don't care since the word 9th grade and some students may be a little shy to talk about this which is why we do it one on one but this student it makes absolute sense that this student to extra curricular activities were very limited why because and I've known since I've done this and they are higher spectated admired for their work so please don't think that this is anything less than a student who every day after school participated a Pacoima beautiful that's a waste just the same neither one is less than the difference is going to put in the information and be specific I could have been very non-specific instead you know I take care of my three siblings and I did that every day because my mom was worried and it just goes on on tangents versus I prepped lunch there specific I wash dishes okay there's dishwasher right they get paid for this at restaurants and Kim either three different types of work that really disperses doing show commitment or some Civility and resourcefulness and time management the readers going to stay while this student on top of everything still had the good creates wow okay this student commitment the student shows resilience student sure shows courage in this finish was it they're generally interested and doing their best with their academics regardless of some of the obstacles or the difficult stuff that can be on their way and it doesn't apply to every student wanted to give his example just to show the difference that every student can have something to add one more and then I'll look at the shop so I'm going to put it right here let's do you volunteer four community service Celeste am I beautiful because most of us are familiar with this Savannah wanted to kiss her going to secure okay so this dress like what is her differentiation as a non-profit anything until this takes time and replication takes time and Care Station is a nonprofit that would save maybe this is a non-profit organization that you know in this student will say and and then the big question what did he do so I can have a pair of keys this is okay distance to Grand Meridia Donut Palace. open settings cuantas Horas book a total waste is part of the delicacy on Spotify st3 Bowie do in Anza minutos de las juntas are on. 2 hours a week again I learned how to support my community and inform them about getting some rest and plenty check Illinois como esta Como No Mono for Methodist experiencia you and me to yessis Tammy Randall the difference in a lease to another man it's okay it's okay don't sign your child support petronius interesante okay then do so now it starts really takes shape and form deprecation this student do they have the great great the challenges great but I'll set up the classroom with no wonder they the only proceeded into specific activities the the one at home and the one outside of the hall will this make sense because they've been doing this for four years whereas cashier for number to they've only been doing it for 2 years but it makes sense right and so these are the things that the admissions officers wants to know are you a competitive applicant not just check I gave an hour check even hour for high school yes any 3DS it's just 10 hours because at the end of the day if you want to go the extra mile that is a personal decision in Kent and so miss the real to answer the last piece of that question before I look at the church at 4 my question is this on every application they have what's called a dish information but conclude call Escobar. sykes-picot u.s. Academy aluno personalmente but I expect they'll covid-19 polysemous comunicado Police Department Electro tester LOL if there's anything else you want to stop by your academic history you can do so in the space below anything else again the question right gamut but remember you should use the space if you don't subscribe and they have not had the opportunity for example was there poor Kris a certain year any specific information about what change in your school in by or policies that may be impacted you and this is where the student can talk about how when I was in 11th grade I participated in and I apologize for the typos in distance learning and that is not how I learn best this did take a toll in my even though I persevered you know and so on and so forth or like I text you and stay I I was only able to take for a piece out of 10 because the new a piece were not available when I was in 9th and 10th grade right because we're adding different 80s every year and kept so just to show you this is how specific and Link are you say application is where they care about all these details and this is how a student can show themselves to be competitive some of the click saving continue but these are the things that as councillors were walking through the but also there is a commitment from the student and responsibilities to still spend time on these things on their own time right and so before I close because it's almost time and I want it close questions to show you the last piece of being a competitive applicant so there's the great there's what else what did you do and then there's the rain to give you one more chance to tell us and right because maybe there was a when your grades maybe can participate as much and things but maybe your strength is writing so let's have you do some personal Insight questions where you tell us about your stuff and there's a questions and she's asked for so but I told me not to tell best advice open Spotify. Roane Mizzou City Center Coronavirus it is to ascertain pokitomas to Tiki no podemos ver formula to Dallas premium cameras talento de castelar beso by Carlos Vela Barcelona Unilever Carrasco hair so again essays at the end is for that last opportunity for students to say hey you want me at your school I'm going to tell you why and they choose their own questions out of the eight they could be that they talk about hey like I took advantage of a significant opportunity in this is how I did it or you know I really like this academic subject that inspires me and yes I haven't done a piece but I've done all the science a piece because I love science and that's why I'm in robotics this year or maybe it's you know what I understand that I have I don't have a 4.0 but let me tell you what I've done for my community weather what community or outside community in Camp and so as it comes to a close maybe you're asking so that what else can my student do then now that I that the state has opened up a bit and we're back in person and so how you spend your time right so it could be some non-traditional activities or could be some regular activities so it could be that your student apply for student council do something in your book participates in a school club we do have some clubs happening maybe it's nothing in school but it's outside of school and yes the parent are like okay now I know that I don't need to take them to five different things one thing on Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday but they can really focus on the two things into it really well and put that they did it and 9th and 10th or 11th and 12th or in 10th and 11th or maybe you're in middle school. You're like okay now I know I'm going to try this out cavities and it's like working part-time and it doesn't have to be that they work part-time like they get a check maybe like I have a student he goes with his dad as his assistant at his job so his dad's the one that pays him but this boy is giving hours out of his Saturn to work at that restaurant you can sew it all counts just student putting it down on the application May beautifying a place where there is cleaning when I was a kid I went with my mom to the housekeeper that would help her clean like little I went with her and that was my time with my mom so maybe you take your student with you because there's no one else I can take care of them for a while as soon as they're there assisting you with something all that is important and admissions officers never going to devalue someone to work because it's still kind that they invested in that I think about to conclude a little prayer ask him eligible for New York Eternal Masters and so edit my teeth some students are involved your ship others Sports Others May volunteer with teachers and say hey can I help you after school and kind of be like your clerical like organizer they considered as he's slippery and that's why the admissions officers are like how were you responsible como estas this on the Mazda spare key I need to be your  so I slow through something Aloo Masala Lexie blades to give on a shed my scrapbook guard hey Miss Lockwood life Parts West Harrison West excellent a stereo combo, beautiful Pasadena justicia listen to Torres Middle School Middle School on peeden hey Miss whether you're nervous at the medicine America's. and so so lastly and and then I'm going to dive into the questions and will close out in the next 5 minutes there's opportunities to students can pursue at MIT and opportunities outside of MIT I've had students that went back Elementary and would ask your teacher hey like 4 After School can I be here can I volunteer and if they said yes and that became something that they did once a week I've had students that they they used to do karate that used to do martial arts now they don't want to do it themselves but they want to help little ones and that's that's great I had a sit-in this week that told me a few minutes I'm going to be a lifeguard like you know I just got accepted to the program that's great it doesn't have to be something about social if that's not their interest it can be something like lifeguard or like a virtual internship and so I'm going to take the questions and then we'll go from there so let me stop sharing my screen stop sure and let me start taking the questions and we'll just go through them and Care will we be able to schedule meeting with you and the scholar to review how they're doing and what other options might be good for them to add on to make them more competitive applicant do counselors and we do have parent office hours so apparent Kendrick for the office hours which are Tuesday morning and Thursday afternoon and all that's needed is to call directly to the school or email your counselor directly and then we set it up and so the office hours that it's for those things that it's is that a student is in trouble it's not an official parent conference it's a check in it and we absolutely have created our current office hours for that Gyro Spot already went to go do this was to be honest I don't have it on you no they don't have enough for a man to stand by said I go missing for a month is coming with check in Alamos volunteer activities necessary not with us and this is why we do 10 hours that are mandatory right in and we do track that with the uci's yes they want specifics they want to know not specifics like at what time do you volunteer what date but they do want estimate great so they want first where did you volunteer around how many hours a week was at and around how many weeks a year like for example I had a student where he always participated in Rex the Ellie Parks and Rec specific activities and so he did it like every couple months and so we just had to figure out like roughly the cat all the weeks right to it takes time to work on an application absolutely and dedication but this is why students and parents are always encouraged just because you're not giving us 10 hours more than the 10 hours absolutely like a square your volunteering hate to my son and my daughter get a certificate actually for this that shows how many hours they did that you keep it right and so those things help and so in Spanish SE Port Antonio patio de documented vestibulitis voluntary scraper Ben10 Ben10 this estimate I kept inside a Wonder Woman fastest you let you let alone o c a u c a t and a local mall and cancer de colon documented. No khalidiya, they want to know they care in the case of a headache still I know you can't our letters recommendation in Port so who should be asking these from you see until states do not ask for that has recommendation they are public a private school will ask for a letter of recommendation and students would ask for to one from one cheap and one from the other teacher and then the counselor it's mandatory for them to submit a letter recommendation letters recommendation or difficult to do when there's not much to say about what else student did outside of their grid Grace I got this recommendation Las Cruces Laskowski it's not even nguna Carta de recomendacion porque some public has no current little less privadas, USC's philippinen the most awesomest I cannot see your speeding is a Carta Vape inside pumpkin listen to most of it's okay and then another question answering the four questions is equivalent to a personal statement so this is a personal statement so in application to let you see OK Google, cuatro Asus cuatro song in personal statement it's a very honest and personal statements a yam and a personal Insight questions would be lucky if you get on is Los Alamos personal statement the name change back in the day has become personal statement like when I applied to college now it's called personal Insight questions because they're much more specific like smaller questions because in the past students didn't actually answer the question they went off intentions and it cost them a lot of points in whether they would get in or not any other questions I appreciate all the parent participation any other questions for patient yeah absolutely absolutely here's here's a difficult part and icicle people with their attention so here's the difficult part we only can help the student write an application what they tell us right as soon as I got and I got to tell my counselor this is where he hasn't. remember your part time jobs like that counts it's under work experience or hey like when you when you meet with your counselor when you're working on it alone a reminder cancel hey can you help me with like with this or that an application but if I freaked sample don't know student did a certain job I can't even encourage them to write like more extensive details on it and I think it's he see soon enough that I'm at home part-time stay at a spa. go in and win loss records to see if the person has a condo saikali documentos no puede trabajar add in record and Taro ilumno excellent you should give us a recipe that is domestic yes mr.

Like I have a student who's working part-time somewhere and and it's through a friend of their dads that doesn't matter no they wouldn't get in trouble say the first question is Madonna Honda, Santa Rosa Pisano and effective bathroom when I go see do you know what are those last few seats are Soma San Fernando East is going to campus external not going to Temple okay so extra had another better that way in a Spa Palace looking for some basketball and super kid get us a console table that great unless you see snow this screaming and I can almost get Davido if the first one is not put it on Travis are going to check it thank you thank you to that last question and then we can go what is thine own way of 15 minutes late and already I'm sure we'll start on working on the extracurricular activities outside the school or do we wait until the ninth grade that's an actual question and it's going to be perfect 1 to close and then I'll say this an eighth grade the beautiful part is when you haven't started high school yet you can pre-plan but the beautiful party start to research where should your student get involved so you've heard me say a million times you're always been here to see this bubba, Buda because they are some of the best organizations have ever worked with and they're so safe and pro kids like they're so student-centered so you can start to do your research as a parent where do I feel comfortable with my student balance. And by the way YouTube. stick middle school students in K and they are meeting virtually as a parent you can start to plan what day wear and this summer when it's good as over get your student involved his accounts once I lost count and I'll count insert to like use the time that you have right now to figure out what does my daughter like which is my son like and how can I start to teach them as a parent the responsibility and commitment right to dismiss the commitment and to balance son daughter I know you're going to school I know you have a lot of homework but we got to start to learn like how to also have other responsibilities after school if time permits right but I think summer would be the perfect time for the student to commit somewhere to volunteer virtually or in person and that's where you as a parent decide what's best and safe and in the best fit for that in espanyol excellent day and I could almost make it smell musty Lambrusco High School and we don't know within a serious to research that I don't think it'll come a little chaos, and set up and send it to my night I'll let you know.
