On Wednesday, we had a pizza lunch in the library so that everyone could be together as a group - and I was so happy that all eight students came!!

After everyone had eaten, the pizza party unexpectedly turned into a study party. Way to be studious, SEAD!
Speaking of studious, a big shout-out to Jakara for her hard work in Math class this week. Jakara and I worked together for a long time on some homework assignments, and we also met with her teacher to find out how she could improve in the class. Jakara's goal this spring is to stay after school more, and she really accomplished that this week. Keep it up, Jakara!
On Friday, many of us attended a National College Fair at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center. I traveled there with Miguel, Juan Pablo, and Alex, and met Ronaldo and Denise there.
The college fair was HUGE! Schools from all over the country (and abroad!) had set up booths, and the SEAD students got some good information and plenty of brochures. Shout-out to Ronaldo for advocating for himself and asking the representatives some difficult and really important questions. I'm proud of you, Ronaldo.
After all that talking and brochure-collecting, Alex, Ronaldo and I stopped at the delicious Flour Bakery for lunch and yummy pastries. It was really nice spending time with you both!
And finally, on Friday night Miguel, Juan Pablo, and Pam attended their Junior Prom at the Hyatt Harborside!!! I came along to help the photographer - and, more importantly, to document the event for everyone in the SEAD family since they were all dying for pictures. It was a beautiful evening with good food, a perfect view of the Boston skyline, and LOTS of dancing.
That's all for now! Stay tuned for the following events:
Friday, April 17th - College visit to either Fitchburg or Salem State (during school hours)
Thursday, April 23rd -Tentative visit to Framingham State for students who are available
Saturday, May 2nd - PRACTICE TESTS! Pick SAT, ACT, or SAT IIs
--> Unless you are already signed up for a practice test at school that day! You know who you are.
Friday, May 8th - Family Dinner!!!! Please let me know who in your family will be attending!
May 6th & May 23rd - Fun events - more details to come :)
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone!
