8/18/2022

Berlin, MD – Starting August 15, 2022, the Worcester Prep Class of 2023 hit the ground running in preparation for their college application season this fall.

Rising seniors attended a four-day College Application Workshop in the Guerrieri Library, hosted by the WPS Office of College Counseling. The students worked one-on-one with the WPS Director of College Counseling, Ms. Vickie Garner, writing college applications and essays, practicing interview techniques, and refining their college lists. Mrs. Kathy Roberts, Assistant to College Counseling, helped seniors update their Naviance accounts and stay focused during the writing sessions.

In addition, guest speakers visited throughout the week to share their expertise with the students including: Mr. Charles Overholt (Assistant Director of Admissions at Salisbury University), Ms. Suzie Friedrich (Admissions Officer at Washington College), Mrs. Megan Leslie and Mr. Kevin Chalk, (WPS English Teachers).
