In addition to our having our first Discover UC night here at school, last Friday we had a Discover UC day as well. It took place during our school day so that families could see what this high school is really about. The other ambassadors and I were able to take our small groups to sit in on three academic classes (a mock trial class, freshman writing course, and an anatomy class), see a forensics piece presented by two members of the forensics team, and have a Q&A session at the end. We had several families from the Sterling, NJ, area who all seemed very excited to be here which made our jobs as ambassadors all the more rewarding. When it came time for the Q&A session, there were, at most, two questions which means we did pretty well when it came to clarity while we individually talked to our groups!
It was good to be able to show the parents and potential students what real classes are like and let them walk our halls with us on a real school day. There was nothing rehearsed and nothing was set in stone which was nice and I think very beneficial when it came to our visitors really getting a feel for the school.
Overall, it was a great day and I can speak for all the ambassadors when I say we hope to see those families again soon!
