Your expert High School Placement Team
Our Placement Counselors first meet with families to begin to think about what it means to find “best fit” schools. Discussing what each student enjoys about Brandeis Marin and what they would like to experience in high school is a great starting point.
Throughout the process, our counselors provide guidance on:
- the approach to researching schools
- the consideration of specific attributes of schools
- the student interview process - what to expect and tips for successful outcomes (includes mock interview opportunities)
- advocacy for students in speaking with admissions teams at high schools
- provide opportunities to meet with High School Admissions teams
- adherence to school deadlines
