This intensive writing workshop is designed to create a space for rising 12th graders to begin the creative process of drafting their college essays. The workshop is much more than the college process; as students will work with Derryfield’s experienced Director of College Counseling and a member of the English department faculty to find ways to uncover their unique story and draft an essay that truly reflects their values and life experiences. This class will be run remotely with a mix of live time spent sharing our writing as a group and individual time writing with guidance from the teacher. On the final day of the workshop, a college admission officer will join us to provide the college perspective on the personal statement and to read drafts of essays.
 
This workshop is designed to run with a small cohort of students to ensure personal attention.
