Counselors' Corner

The Counselor's Corner is a series of articles that are written by the guidance department to keep our families informed about a variety of things that are important to your daughters. Since we work with all of our students, the entire department is responsible for contributing articles from time to time. We try to keep our articles brief and timely. These articles also appear in the weekly Tiger Tracks sent to parents each Friday.

AP Online Scores for Students
This July, AP students will receive their scores online only.  In preparation for this, students should sign up for a free College Board account at apscore.org.  We have asked all of our students to use their St. Agnes student identification number as their unique number and they were also asked to provide their email address on their answer sheets.

After the completion of each student’s final AP exam, they are given their student pack which has all of the vital information including their AP number.  Please help your daughters put this in a secure place until July!!

Students will need to remember their College Board account username and password plus their AP number and their student ID number.  Students will then receive an email after the exam period is over letting them know how and when to access their scores.

More information will be posted on http://www.apscore.org, so we ask that all of our student check back periodically.

Helicopter Parent: When is Helping Too Much?

The term “helicopter parent” is becoming more and more popular in our society, and therefore we must ask ourselves the question: “Is it possible to help our children too much?”

The New York Times
explores this idea in a recent article “When Does Helping Hurt?”  Check it out!
