About the cours

To start, make sure you have a notebook for College and Career Success. Each post/activity starts with a quickwrite (QW); you will complete your quickwrites in this notebook, and share them with your EF at your meetings. For each quickwrite, spend about 10 minutes writing down whatever comes to mind in response to the QW prompt. Try to write for the entire 10 minutes.

You can also use this notebook for any thoughts and reflections you want to jot down while completing the activities, and when we get to the college and career planning, you can keep your college list and other notes about college and career interests in your notebook.

If you are new to the course, start at the bottom and work your way up. New posts/activities will appear at the top.

Letter From Your Future Self

QW: Take five minutes to describe where you think you will be in 10 years, and what you will be doing. What will your life be like?




Imagine yourself sometime in the future (at least 5-10 years after graduating from high school). By this time, someone has invented a trans-temporal postal service that can deliver mail to the past. As your future self, write a letter to yourself now, describing accomplishments and experiences you've had and sharing any advice for yourself going forward.

Your letter should be about a page long. Turn the letter in to your EF.

Optional: If you want, you can also write an email TO your future self. On the websitehttps://www.futureme.org/, you can write an email to yourself in the future, specify how far in the future you will want to receive this email, and they'll send it at the appropriate time.
