Thank you, parents of the HS Class of 2016

I wanted to take a minute to thank all the HS Class of 2016 parents who have generously given their time, guidance, and opinions on all things having to do with this crazy process of selecting and applying to colleges. Some of you will be hanging around as acceptances continue to roll in, but some have made decisions and will be moving on from CC (although personally I don’t see how you could possibly do this!). My daughter (can’t quite get into the ‘DD’ moniker) is a junior, so I will be around for a while. I’ve learned a lot. A ton. The biggest thing I’ve learned is that I don’t know squat. And, that there is always someone on here to tell me that.

Thanks to those posters who can repeat themselves without sounding condescending because there are always people lurking who may be hearing it for the first time. Thanks for posters who can understand humor in a post. Thanks to posters who can always pull up links to prior threads that are so interesting. Thanks to those users who don’t always feel the need to post at all! Thanks to the moderators who close the crazy threads, and leave me warnings in my Inbox :).

Happy New Year. I hope to see you (I lurk a lot) more in 2016, and good luck to all your kids on their journey!

P.S. Thank you to all those other parents, too!

I am not a parent of 2016, but as a lurker, I learn a lot that will help with my D21. I love following 2016 thread!

@VANURSEPRAC As soon as we finish with the process for D16, it will be time to focus like a laser on S21, so I will be right there with you, as will a few others with '16’s. S21 presents a set of completely different challenges than his older sister, it will be quite a ride and glad to see there are already others here who will be along for that journey (-:
