07 Feb Road Map for February: Freshmen

As a freshman, your focus should be on exploration—of yourself, your interests, and the opportunities available to you. If you haven’t joined any clubs, sports, or arts programs yet, consider trying something new in the coming weeks. Extracurricular activities not only make high school more enjoyable, but they can also help you discover passions that may shape your future—find what truly excites and motivates you! And start considering summer opportunities, whether it’s a job, volunteer work, or a fun learning experience. Colleges look first at your academic performance, but they also value curiosity, engagement, and personal growth.
