EphBlog’s favorite high school principal, Nancy Gannon ‘89, needs some help.

My 11th graders are so excited about college applications and as we think about the steps they need to take, I’m strategizing about how to build a useful bridge to our alma mater. Any suggestions? I know many colleges sponsor trips (pay for our 11s to get out there & host them when they arrive) and other colleges do much more, but I’m not really sure who I’d talk to in order to forge a relationship. Would love some advice.

Good questions. Although I am somewhat plugged in with admissions (doing my first alumni interview tomorrow), I don’t have specific advice for Nancy. Gina Coleman ‘90 certainly seems like someone worth reaching out to. Questbridge may be relevant.

What advice do our readers have for Nancy and her students?
