Dear
Parent:
Please
share your thoughts and feelings about your son/daughter by answering the
following questions. Be funny, be serious,
and be bold. The more I can learn
about your son/daughter, the better my ability to help guide them through the
college search and selection process. Responses on the Parent Evaluation
consistently prove to be a valuable resource when I write college
recommendations. I hope you will share your responses with your son/daughter.
If you do not find the
following questions helpful, I encourage you to write me a letter.
1.
Describe one or two major events that you see as turning points in your
son/daughter’s development and explain why you view them as such.
2. What are your son/daughter’s greatest strengths/weaknesses? (Please
explain)
3. Has your son/daughter’s high school experience been pleasurable,
painful or both? Why?
4. What should I know about your son/daughter that I might not know
already?
5. Is there anything you wish to add which would help me in writing the
Counselor’s recommendation for college? (E.g. educational background, special
family situation, special medical trauma, personal achievements, etc.)
