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 a member of the Derryfield English department faculty to find ways to uncover their unique story and draft an essay that truly reflects their values and life experiences. There will be a mix of 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.
