We are fortunate again to be partnering with our friends at Bates for this school year. We are starting the year by asking 8th-grade students to think about setting ambitious future goals. Starting this Friday, students will visit Bates to inspire their futures.
In the three sessions, students will:
- Session 1: Look at how to access the College
