The College Counseling Office frequently reaches out to parents and guardians to communicate ways for you to support your child’s college process, or with checklists of things for your child to do. As we begin to look ahead to summer, we have developed a Family Questionnaire, in order to assist our efforts as a college counseling team. This questionnaire helps us write thoughtful and thorough counselor letters of recommendation in support of your child’s application. In an increasingly competitive college admission landscape, these counselor letters help to distinguish our students. You can help by sharing details of your child’s experiences outside of Berkshire. Parents and guardians are invited to fill this out together or may fill it out separately. Please complete the survey by June 15. The information you provide will be confidential.

In addition, our annual College Boot Camp for Fifth Formers will take place on Saturday, May 16 from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. This is a required event for all juniors. Please let your child’s counselor know if there are any conflicts.
