In addition, attendees will be given preferential consideration on waitlists for PG athletes this spring and preferential pricing for day student athletes!

These planning and placement workshops are designed specifically for the parents of those middle school and high school student athletes who want to become college athletes. Speaking at both events will be Terri Long, Director of College and Academic Success at SPIRE. She'll cover in-depth the complexities of navigating the collegiate sports environment, including strategies on how to get recruited, what goes into being accepted into a college athletic program, and career planning for student athletes beyond their time playing college sports. Other members of the SPIRE admissions team will also be there to field questions. Food and beverages will be provided.

One parent had this to say about SPIRE's approach to the world of elite high school and college athletics: "I really appreciated how SPIRE handled what is a complex and arcane process. Not only do their people clarify and simplify, but they also offer their expert opinion and guidance on how to get the process started and how to see it through. Public schools don't offer anywhere near such clear guidance. You come away from one of these events with the notion that SPIRE has the world of student athletics absolutely wired."

RSVP for either of these college planning and placement workshops here. See you there!
