POBJFKHS Guidance Wins Prestigious Award
The Sophomore College Tour was recognized as an innovative approach to bringing awareness to the college search and application process to sophomores. This was the 2nd year that the tour took place. A group of approximately 50 sophomores traveled to the Boston area for two nights and three days and visited eight colleges (Brandeis, Bentley, Tufts, Northeastern, Boston College, Boston University, Harvard, and Quinnipiac.) Besides touring campuses and meeting with admissions representatives, students met with a POB alumni panel to learn about campus involvement at Boston College, visited the art gallery at Tufts, and attended a Boston University ice hockey game. Students also toured Fenway Park and played traditional New England pin bowling.
