A quick reminder for those of you who are still working on your college applications over break... don't forget to watch your deadlines! We received an e-mail warning from Common App alerting us to the fact that during peak times the processing time for payments when submitting an application through their site is up to 2 days! That means that there is a potential for a significant delay which could make your application late (and therefore not accepted by the college). So, if you are looking at a January 1st deadline or a January 3rd deadline, I would strongly recommend that you plan on being done with your essays a few days in advance so that you can get it submitted and your fees paid well in advance of the last minute rush.
The automatic emails from this site are no longer happening. You can receive posts from the new site - www.wkhscounselors.wordpress.com. I've written 3,951 posts since launching this site which is pretty crazy. I appreciate everyone who has followed along the way. The new site is a way for all WKHS students and families to gather the information and not just "my" families. So please, join us there. And know I appreciate you still coming back to read the updates.
