-Hillview Middle School 8th Grade Parent
“You helped our son gain the confidence he needed to tackle the application process. Your questions and comments were constructive and he left feeling he had produced a strong summary of who he was and what he wanted from a high school. This process also helped him understand better which school is a better fit for him.”
-Carey School
5th Grade Parent
“Thank you for being such a supportive partner in completing the application process and making yourself available to us virtually whenever we needed you.”
-Crocker School
8th Grade Parent

-Burlingame Intermediate School 8th Grade Parent
"We underestimated the requirements and level of work required for the application process. Mary helped us by getting us organized and helping us understand better what the schools needed from us. The feedback on all aspects of the application was very helpful as well.”
-Crocker School
8th Grade Parent
“It was so helpful to have someone else give feedback and spend time with our kids. They emerged feeling very good about their essays and confident about the process. This was invaluable to our family. We are all so pleased with the results.”
