<p>For Stanford's Secondary School Report, who exactly do I give this form to? According to their website, it states:</p>

<p>Secondary School Report Form</p>

<p>"The Secondary School Report allows your former college counselor or other school administrator who may know you well to tell us about you: your energy and enthusiasm for the life of the mind, your impact on your school community, and your academic strength in relation to that of your classmates. The information gleaned from this form also sets your academic experience in context for us: how many of your classmates went on to attend a four-college, what kinds of advanced or accelerated courses (if any) did your school offer, the size of your class and more. This information is important to us as we assess your achievements within your school environment first, and then later within our overall applicant pool."</p>

<p>It also states:</p>

<p>"Request the Secondary School Report be submitted by the
counselor or other secondary school official (from the high school
from which you graduated) by March 15."</p>

<p>I am a high school graduate of year 2008, but I do not know my counselors very well in high school. As for college, I do know them well. Also, will the school have to send the transcript to Stanford or do I have to do it?</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>Wait. I’m fairly certain that you just need your high school transcripts and not the secondary school report. Entomom?</p>

<p>Usually HSs keep GC reports for a few years, so they will just copy over the same information that was given when you applied for fr admissions. You have to contact your HS to have a transcript sent; HSs are not all the same, some will send it directly to S for you, others will give/send you a sealed official transcript and you will need to send it to S.</p>
